Would have thought 195/40/16? 45 would be too large a sidewall?

Assuming they're 6" or so wide.

40 or 45 profile. Depends on the budget. The tyres size will also depend what make of tyre you decide on. Yoko A539 in 45 size is very slim, wheras in comparison, Uniroyal rainsports look huge in both height & width.

Few manufacturers make a 40 profile in this size. Dunlop, Continental & TOYO IIRC.
