195/55-15 is the closest, diameter wise (which is what you should be most concerned with, after verifying that the wheel width is approved for that tire size).

I agree with TunerNoob, but how wide is your wheels? 7"? for a lowered 7" wheels with 205's, those tires will get a "bulged/baloon" effect on the wall due to the tire's width and eventually will hit your fender. try 195X50X15's, CMIIW, lets wait for other inputs

195/55-15 is the correct size, as long as the wheels are the right width (6-7" or so).
