What's the general opinion on these 205/65/15 tires on Fuchs.....are they to big? I like the vintage appearance but do they look out of place?

I have 205/65/15 Yokohamas on five lug 911 6 x 15 flat Fuchs my car and I love them. I was going to swap to the 195s, but decided it wasn't worth the time, money and hassle.

I held the 195 side by side with the 205 and there isn't very much difference.
