Nope no problems at all, only your speedometer will be off slighty, because 195/65 is slightly bigger than the stock size. You probably won't even notice.

If your dropped it will rub your fender with 195/65/15. I have 185/60/15 and I wanted to go wider but the shop didn't recommend it bc it would rub and I'm dropped about 1.75" on SI's.

yeah... ummm no 195/60/15 will NOT rub.... not even close, but then again if you are running +35 or less offset, or dropped your car like a hundred inches then it'll rub. but that is OEM stock size tires and i'm talking about the ex alloys.... 15x6.... as for speedometer... really it wont make a difference or at least wont matter. but then again, i assume you are not running ex alloys so if you're running steelies... go for the 65's cuz i think they're 5.5 width, but still shouldnt be rubbing even with lowering springs
