Tire size for R81 Hollies (Imola)

Hello,
I have a 15 inch R81 Hollies from Mini Cooper and just wondering if I can put a 195 width tires on them. These R81 wheels is 15x5.5 so maybe 195 is too wide for this wheel. Currently it has the stock 175/65/15 on them.

Thanks.

Most tire manufacturers provide the recommended rim width range for their tires. It's not always just the width. It's basically width and sidewall. One size with a 50 series sidewall might be acceptable on a rim width, but the same size in a 40 series sidewall might not be acceptable/safe. Sellers such as Tire Rack are very good about providing measurable width and recommended rim with range under tire specs
