offset and ride heigth I believe both played a role, if you were running a +40 with a 16X7 and a 1.7 drop you woul dbe ok from what I understand however he is on DF's (I don't even know if they've settled yet from the pics) and is running +38, plus 40 in the front is -flush-

Stock 15's here are 185/60/15 and a comparable tire size is 205/55/15.

So, 195/50's are miniscule!

Actually waiting on a couple different sizes to arrive (smaller) so I can experiment more. These actually protrude out farther than I want. Beauty rings and painted wide whites won't be installed till later this summer.....$$$$ and other projects!

The overall diameter of the 195/50's 22.64", while the OEM tires (185/60's) is 23.7". The 195's are over 1" smaller in diameter than the 185's. !95/55's would've been a much closer match with a diameter of 23.41".
