Help me with tire sizing pls.
Try this link... (Tire Rack with make/model/year/size already selected)
Some good ones for under $110/wheel and tires can be had for cheap. Sell your originals to offset the cost, wheel + tire combo packages and selling your existing ones is a much cheaper option than you might imagine since you don't have the extra cost of unmounting originals, mounting new ones, and balancing the new ones.
Kuhmo Ecsta 205/40HR17 are only $52/ea, quite a bargain, and mounted and balanced for free when purchased with rims. Total is $656 for a good set of rims, tires, and shipping is $76.43 but there is no tax, which saves you 5%. Sell your current wheels and tires for $250, don't have to pay for unmounting existing, mounting new ones, and you've pretty much good to go.

Use that and plug in your current size and whatever you'll think of running. It will show you how much bigger they will be/ how off your speedo will be etc.

You dont want to go higher in the sidewall. its gonna make your ride feel soft and non responsive due to all the tire flex thats going to occur in the sidewall of the tire when you turn. Just man up and get some new shoes man. 50% of 195mm is already a rather large sidewall in my mind.
