They will whack your speedo out too, profile is far too big. I think this size would be more suited to a mk4

Both will, 195/60's are for a mk4 and will look stupid on a mk3, way too big as well plus will rub the arches, 195/45 are not a great choice, 195/50/15's is a good choice with lots of options.
