first of all, what rims do you have. that would make all the difference whether it'll handle 205 tires.

195 in the back
205 in the front
205 in the front
195 in rear and 205 up front would be extremely wack for autocrossing on .

yea, personally for me, I'd get 195-50...for aftermarket and OEM 15s...people usually get 205s on their aftermarket 15s, but I dont really like how they look...it makes the tire/wheel look awkard on the car...195 looks more fit. plus, i dont think it makes the biggest difference...thats just me tho..ha.

I've been using 195/50/15s for some time they are great for the street but for autoX you may want a little more meat on there. Remember there are many different tire companies out there and their measurements vary company to company. One copanies 195 tire may be the size of anothers 205 or very close to it. I would look into bridgestone pontenza so3s in 195/50/15 they run fairly wide and i think you would be happy with them.
