Default Tyre size

Thinking about putting bigger tyres on the rear of my car so it puts the power down better.
Currently running 215 40 17's on Comp MO's which I think are an 8J rim.
No idea what the offset is to be honest.
Question is, who is running bigger rear tyres on their cars and does it have any negative effect on the handling and or even the aesthetics.
I know a lot of modern performance stuff have larger rear boots (BM'S/911's etc).
Was considering 235's 40's or even 245 35's as the latter has a closer circumference.
Be interesting to get the experts opinions
