tire size for 6' wheels 120-130

I'm looking at some 6 inch rims for a 122 and am trying to decide what size tire to go with.

either 195/65/15
or 205/60/15

Both sizes will keep my wheel diameter the same as stock to keep the speedo readings the same.

I was a little concerned about the 205 tires making it hard to steer.

Any comments, suggestions, recommendations, biases, etc. would be appreciated.
