I use 195/50 on mine.

195/45s are too crashy on bumps due to the low profile.

Will probably go for 195/45/15 just need to decide which ones to get now

Im thinking of trying Toyo T1-S what are peoples views on these.

Ive only ever really had Yokohamas used to have A539's on the Cos but thats now got Paradas on, and my Nova has some A539's on the front and some Falken things on the back. So I think a change is in order.
