195/65 is best modern size and will not rub using stock 5.5 wheels. I like them because you get 30mm more width with almost the exact diameter of the stock 165. Therefore your gear ratios/speedometer are unaffected.

edit: you might get a little inside rubbing in the front on full lock. Not a serious problem in my experience.
