Better use 215/45 as that one will still give the same diameter size as you're current one. 225/45 will add about 0.5cm to the sidewall height/thickness (or overall diameter increase by 1cm).

Yes, you can but then front and rears too much differences as 195 compared to 225.

As bro. 6UE5t mentioned, maybe 215 will be better, unless you will be upgrading the front width too....
 
plan tto upgrade front yre olso.....now hard to find 195/50 .....some shop sell over myr 400++..
 
Yup, 195/50/R16 very rare. First came out in the Satria Neo. But is 225/45 and 215/45 easier to find?? You can 205/45/R16 or 205/50/R16 got more choices....but 205/45 is 1.7% smaller and 205/50 is 1.6% bigger, but then is your 195/50/R16 the original size??

Working from your 195/50/R16 to 205/45/R17, it is 2.44% bigger. Whether it will scrap your fender depends also on your wheels offset. HWL sports spring should be more stiff, so you should not bottom out too much, if not have to adjust higher. Best is to test before purchase.....

current 16' is 205/45/16 (f) / 205/50/16 (r).

205/50/16>205/45/17 = almost same size right? slightly bigger than few mm's?

If you are already on 205/50/R16 size then 205/45/R17 should not be a problem, only 0.7% bigger...
