195/60 will offer a little better selection & slightly lower cost while giving slightly better dry traction (but you may not notice, depending on the brand/model you choose). 185/65 will give slightly better rain/slush/snow traction (but you may not notice, depending on the brand/model you choose).
I'm currently running 185/65-15 H-rated BFGoodrich Traction T/A on our '99 9³ SE & like them better for all seasons (here in Northern Colorado) & road conditions than any other 195/60-15 S-rated or T-rated tire I've tried. They simply grip better & handle better. (Sears frequently has them on sale.) The H-rating gives them a slightly harsher ride, but the grip/handling is so outstanding that I don't care! If we never saw snow I'd get the same tire in 195/60-15.
