I would not do this as the the 195's are narrow but 1.1" taller.

195 is a bit skimpy for the 2.5i Leg's mass and torque, so stick with 205 or 225 (OB) tread. More importantly the ultra-soft b65 series too-tall sidewall will destroy handling and traction. If you want to get more ride height try 205-215/60R15, or better yet get 16" rims (as standard on the Limited), where I'd use 205/5516 or 205/60R16 for a taller perch. I've seen many folks push to full 225/60R16 (OB size) to make a "fake" Legacy OB Sedan, as well. Personally, this chassis and 2.5i motor's optimization is achieved with a 215/55R16 size, but these are harder to find. But you have lots of options. Just stay away from less than 205 or taller than 60.
