I think your pushing your luck with that size, fifteens not an option? I didn't think you could get low profiles in semi slicks

195/50 is the common size sadly. A048r's are the same. Only difference I found with the yoko a048r's is that the sidewalls are a little straighter and not so balloony this giving you a touch more room.

This is the reason I went to 15" wheels. Your choice of tyres when running 16" wheels is very limited. You could also look in to some proper slicks if you have the money. The size you want is 190/580R16 but again I don't know how available that size is.

Yokohama do the Advan A005 in that size but expect to pay bug ££ for them.
