Mark, you can run the 185's without any problems. The 195's may cause some
rubbing.... I have had both the Bridgestone Potenzas and Dunlops on my '95
VW (the Potenza's were the model that the RE950 replaced) and MUCH
prefered the Bridgestones. I have the Dunlops now, same model as you
noted, and find them to be less crisp in handling and much worse wearing
than the Bridgestones. I really dislike them.
