i put a 195 on a ten inch. tire was some sunnyday tire from a price club. wasnt the best strech cause of shit tire but its on the wheel

if you want that coined stretch look go with falken 512 no matter the size.

your wheel set is not THAT aggressive so you can get away with a 195/50 all day with a tad of camber. the ef hatches can fit the stupid ass sportmax 8"+15 with 195/50 and some camber
