195/45 is correct. 175/50 will see you in the first hedge you come to. When he says 'they fit better' what he means is 'Ive got some in that i cant sell to anyone else'

175s will give you more arch clearance and scene+ points

it werent a suggestion to get 175s. They will have the same road contact as moped tyres so no.
