Default 15x7 Wheel: Tire Size?

I have a brand new set of 195/50 Yokes ES100 tires that have been lying around and I just purchased some 15x7" wheels. Will the tires work? I know 205s will but it might be a stretch for the 195s. Thanks.

It'll be a stretch like you said, but I think they'd work. Personally, I'd sell the tires you already have and put them towards a set of 205s.

I think the word strecth is pushing it a little far. The tires will fit fine just might look really small on the wheel. 205's would be ideal but the 195's will be fine. Its only 10mm's.

Would they be OK for daily driving (no track use)? I can still return the tires but I'd be paying about $100 for the 205s. I didn't plan on purchasing a 7" wide rim, but found a set I wanted.

I wouldn't bother returning them unless you plan on upgrading to a better tire. A 205/50r15 S-03 Pole Position would be nice
