60 v 50 aspect ratio on a 205 15 inch tyre is a 7% increase in diameter way too much !

That's why I asked the question. My friend in the tyre business used his employer's software to find the correct tyre size for my car very recently and he came up with 205/60 section on 15" rims as the recommended option. His software is clearly wrong and I insisted on 205/50 Hankooks which are apparently quite rare now (he had to get them in from his Portsmouth depot) hence my question about availability a month or so ago.
Thanks to all for the advice.
