I had a look at alvins ride running 195 50 15s and they look fantastic and the tyre I want to run is a Yokohama C drive which much cheaper as a 50 series. Do you see an issue with handling running a 50 vs a 60? I know guys run 50s on 16" wheels in australia. I might win a prize for most indecisive 311s member.
I would run the 195 50 series 15s...I an assuming you are running at least 5.5" rim. I run the 195/60 series x 15" on 7" rims and they rub on hard corners ( that depends on the offset and body mounting). My next tire will be 195/50x15. You car will have more acceleration with the smaller tires by just a bit.
