I'm not yelling...I'm the ETKA pimp...lol ;o)
And according to ETKA the Aero 6-spoke "pie plate" wheels are 15x6 and the 10-spoke and 5-spoke (sport) wheels are 15x7.
I had a 5-spoke next to a spare Aero wheel I had lying around, and it was wider...although I've never had a 10-spoke, so I can't visually confirm.

How much of this will disappear when the car comes off the blocks? We will see shortly.

What I was getting at though, that if you have the 6" wheels, 195 are the correct size...
...and with the 7" wheels you can do 195 or 205.
I'd keep it to an OE size, and, therefore find another tire.
Buttttt...my '96 A6q came with 205/65 tires on a 15x7 wheel and they were fine, no rubbing or problems...rode really nice.
