They're a little wider - beyond the limit? I couldn't say...
Have a shufti at the MintyLamb tire calculator:

According to this, a 195/65-15 is real close to the original size. I have a
pair of 205/65-15 tires on my stock rims, and the look a bit fat. I plan to
replace them with the 195/65-15 size.
I'm thinking the Sumitomo HTR - I've got a set on my Spitfire that are nice and
sticky, and not noisy. Decent price, too...
