Answers:
How much does an Owner's Manual cost from a dealership?
Maruthi will ofcourse not recommend anything that is not factory fitted - but if you need better traction and dont mind mileage drop - you can go ahead and change the tyres - they wont complain either.
advantage to it is that your getting more tire one the road which means that you get more traction and more control.you are also will technically get a faster pickup in speed from doing this because of the bigger wheel base.(you wont really notice it)
15" would be bigger rims, as for tyre sizes you can safely go one size up. Better traction, control. Maruti wouldn't recommend anything other than the car comes out with.. even if its bullockcart wheels is standard fitment :)
It wont be recommended for sure, but here are the implications
