If you are going to a wider tire go with a shorter sidewall and you should not have a problem. I put a link below to a tire size calculator. Put in your OEM size tires on your OEM size rims. Then punch in the other width, sidewall, and rim-height options. The size closest to your OEM overall diameter should fit without an issue. 205s are not all that much wider than 195s. Narrower tire will offer better milage but I would guess not much. Wider tire is best in dry driving conditions and will improve high-speed handling.
