yes. that would be the closest diameter/ circumference to your stock wheels of 195-65-15.

Other options are 225/45/17 or 215/45/17 depending on your new wheel width.

my new rims are 16, the standard size is 205/55/16, but i would like to get on protection because my area has tons of holes on the road.

205 55 16 is the closest thing to stock I feel 205 60 16 will be ok but could be too tall and your speedo could be off.
