914 tires and wheels, options?

I have acquired a '73 2 ltr. that has some outdated Bridgestone Potenza in 195/60 15. As we know, quality replacement tires are getting hard to find. I'm wanting some tires that have good grip, and are quiet. I'm not cocerned about snow (I live in SE Tenn.) but having some grip in wet in a bonus. That leaves grip on dry pavement as most important, especially since I live less then 30 min. from the Tail of the Dragon! What are the best tires that everyone has found, both good and bad? What size and why? What about changing the wheels to 17" like these (https://www.bbwheelsonline.com/klassik-rader-914-porsche-wheel-17x7-4x130-black-machined-40mm-in-cart-discount/?) Going to 17" does give us more options and these from BBwheels have a stock look. My car is a driver and has a rebuilt 2.2 engine in it.
