You car turbo or what? If stock then gonna ruin the balance especially on power delivery. But you dont care right?

15" is for show IMO but for oversize brake upgrade at least need 16". My rule is for stock dont go more than 185 width and 6 1/2 jj. 195 is too much that you have to consider a lightweight wheel like cheaper advanti storm or enkei rpf1 to lessen the chance of being tapau by stock myvi rim on race to max speed or drag.

15inch provide the best balance between petrol consumption, comfort and looks.

Agree with the above, for small econo car like Myvi, max just use 15x6.5 and choose the lightest rims you can afford (Lenso, Advanti, Enkei Tuning are good value for money). Tires depends on you current stock tires, what is the size? Then can use conversion to get upgraded tire size for 15' but still maintain similar overall diameter.

I am using 185/65/14 on stock rim for testing purpose. eo3 Toeo33neo, it took more than 5 seconds to reach close to 160kmh while rpm is doing more than 5000 rpm. That put alot of stress on gearbox.

With 16" rim you have to use 45 profile tyre and sacrifice comfort but it seems than it's within -0.21% smaller diameter compared to stock myvi size. The figure on paper looks good for performance but personal experience I think you may not like it.
