I have taken the rims off and put steelies back on. The rear tires when i hit a bump or anything on the road the wheel hit the top of the wheel well. Never happened with the 195's. The question is can I replace the back tires with 195's and run 205's on the first will i really fell the difference at all in the ride?
do you mean that you are rubbing on the fender now?

if so, I'd just do a small fender roll.
I personally feel a difference between the 205 and 195 as far as traction, but you may not. it's not major and it really depends on how you drive the car.
