would 15's with 195/45's look alright on a stazz?

God no!
Way too small.
That rolling diameter is only 556.5mm, which is 72.1mm SMALLER than than stock 195/70 @ 628.6.
Don't mess about, I run 265/30 19s which are 641.6mm which are completely legal.
As soon as I can find some 4 stud 3 piece 20s, I'll go 285/25 20 which is still only 650.5. :)

i run 16X7 and 16X8`s on my orange car, i think 16`s or 17`s are the best all round option for your average punter, especially 16`s as tyres are still cheap as and easily available second hand..
remember the starion has a REALLY unusual offset so most wheels meant for silvias etc even though they bolt on WONT FIT PROPERLY!
