Best wheels and tyres for a CR-V?

A few months ago, in your Daily Telegraph column, you were very complimentary about the comfortable ride in the Honda CRV. You also advised the wheel/tyre combination which was helped make that comfort.

Can I obtain a copy of that advice?

17" wheels with 225/65 R17 tyres or 18" wheels with 225/60 R18 tyres. NOT 19" wheels fitted with 245/45 R19 tyres.
