195 50 15 kumho's get a nice lil stretch and so do 195 50 15 lexani lx9100. it has to do with brand too because some 195's will run like 205's or 215's. i had some westlake sa05 195 50 15 on my 15x8 and they didnt stretch at all and they stuck out.

Stretching is frowned upon in this community. Unsafe.

This would probably go better in the wheel/tire section. And even then the thread will get locked:

"10. Do not ask about "stretching" tires onto wheels that are too wide.
All such topics will be locked. Tire manufacturers determine the wheel widths onto which each model and size tire can be mounted safely, and you can find the range of these wheel widths in the specs on their websites as well as those of retailers like the Tire Rack. Mounting tires onto wheels outside this range of approved wheel widths is unsafe because it can, and often does, result in the buildup of excessive stress and heat in the tire sidewalls, which can lead to the tire "popping the bead" and/or tire failure. Make sure your tires are mounted on wheels whose widths are within the approved range."
