There arent many street tires available in that size, or 16x8. But there are tons of good tires in the 15x7 size especially 205/50/15.

15s do look a bit small. But for weight and tire choice they're better. 16s are a good mix of performance and looks. btw 195 are too narrow for an 8 inch rim. you would need a 215 tire which is mostly R compounds in 15" sizes.

yea both sets of wheels are 15x8's I had 17's and let me tell you i will never get another set of 17's but the 15's are extremely comfortable quite and smooth as hell. The black em1 is my buddy's car I think he has the OG oldskool 15x8 +15mm offset and mine are the XXR 501 15x8 with a +15mm offset great wheel and no problems at all no scrubbing, tire noises, and no hub noise.
