I'm running 195s on the back wheels. Ive got BRMs and with the 195s they are very close to rubbing the arch. Id go for 185's or narrower next time. :D
 
You need to watch the rolling radius to keep the gearing right a 195/50 is a lot lower than standard, is your bus lowered?

If its not lowered or slightly lowered I'd go for 185/65/15 all round which means they fit under the rear arches OK (you might struggle with 195's), if you are lower stay with the 185/65's on the rear and go to 175/55's on the front

BRM's with 185/60/15 on the front, 195/60/15 on the rear. The only clearance problems are that the po welded the replacement rear arches over the originals....
 
The problem with 195s and BRMs is due to the incorrect offset on the BRMs. I've got BRMs on my crewcab and they barely fit in the arches with 185/65s yet the bus has 8J porsche rims with 225s on and they have more clearance.
