I spoke to an engineer about this a couple of weeks ago.

You and shane are right - rim diameter can be as much as you like, as long as your rolling diameter doesn't increase too much (mine was less than a 1% change, so I didn't care what exactly the figure was)

for cars under a certain weight (about 1000kg?) you can only go 1" increase in width. for cars over this weight, you can go 1" increase, or 2" with an eng certificate. remember all these values are over the *largest* rims that came on your car from the factory.
