Good choice for size. I went for 6" width wheels and now fined that some 50/55 ratio tyres in 205 width need 6.5" rims so will need to
stick with 195s, not too much of a problem. As with many things in life an extra 1/2" would have made all the difference. Do check the ET size
though on the back so that the tyres don't rub on the outer edge return flange.
