^ NO.

You need to keep in mind that the total diameter of wheel + tire needs to stay within the 23.xx inch mark. Drop wheel diameter by an inch, means tire sidewall needs to increase by an inch.

not unless you don't mind having a slightly different outside rolling diameter

usually an outside diameter of +/- 1/2 inch within stock won't have more than a 3% difference in speedo reading.

meaning if factory is 23.62? , a pretty safe region (outside rolling diameter) is 24 on the high end and maybe 23 on the low end (assuming factory is 23.62 ish??)

I know you meant sidewall needs to increase by 1/2 an inch, but OP is a wheel/tire newbie so just to be clear...

195/50/16 tires with a 16X7 ET40 rim will not rub unless you are REALLY lowered - a DF210 may still rub. This wheel/tire combo is a good compromise for looks, handling and ride comfort.

If you don't want to "compromise" and want extreme lowering/low offset & wide wheels, be prepared to roll your fenders and trim plastic.
