My Myvi 2018 is currently running 185 55 15.
Is it possible for it to use 195 50 15 tyres? And if yes are there anything to take note?

Found someone in Shopee selling CR1 185 55 15 for RM212/pcs
and CR1 195 50 15 for RM193/pcs

Was wondering why is there a price difference, 185 55 15 is always so hard to find + expensive.

We been talking on this for many times, 1st of all you need to consider your sport rim width. Ori sport rim width usually design to match with the 185 size, just imagine small feet with bigger shoes size when you run how you feel? 

Besides that, by changing bigger tire wider size it will also impact fuel consuption. The money you save now on the tires, might even waste more money in long term when driving. Do take note your tire usually last around 40000~50000km. If fuel consuption increase to like even 0.01cent per km, 40000km = RM400 bro.. Is the higher fuel consuption really got savings in long term? Somemore fuel subsidies going off soon bro.

If i were you, i would rather stick to the original size with the original sport rim.
Unless you willing to go all out by changing lightweight sport rim with the suitable width to match the 195 size and in long term due to lightweight maybe still can maintain similar fuel consuption as previous.
