Sorry, forgot to mention; rims are 40 offset (Konig Feather 16 x 7). 250/50/16 are now mounted on these but they are quite worn out so I have to change them. I was looking to use the same wheels but may I go back to 15 x 6 or 15 x 6.5 wheels to get a more bulging tire

If ur getting new tires for the 16s go with either 195 50 or 205 45 I find that if u go to wide car will wonder ....stock SE 16 rim tire size is 195 50 16 with that size and 40 offset u should be fine no rub when u lower ur yaris.

With 205/50/16 there is some rubber exceeding the rim and you get some protection against wheel scraping on curbs. I wonder what will happen with 195/50/16; is the wheel wider than the tire?

the stretch look...not by much on a 7 inch rim may actually be flash with the rim
