195/65/15 vs 195/55/15 tire are very minimal.. you get more 10% more rubber (better for pot holes), but otherwise everything (include mount radius) is the same.

Best is to get a tire tread depth gauge and measure how much tread is left.

Also, make sure the tires are the right size for the car. The Elantra and a lot of newer cars run a 195/65/15 tire now adays while older cars use to run a smaller diamater 195/55/15 tire.
