I I told the dealer I needed to drive with spiked tires in the winter and as it impossible to find premium spiked tires in 185/60R16
I asked him if 195/55R16 is approved. He said, that according to Honda Norway, driving with these tires was completely OK, but needed an un-original 16 inch rims. In fact, here in Norway you can order these un-original rims with 195/55R16 tires directly from Honda Norway when you order the car. Don’t know why original R16 rims can’t be used, but really don’t care about that.
I am playing it safe here, order the car and rim/tires together. Here in Norway we have 5 years /100 000 km warranty on a new car. I also paid for a 5 years service deal. Doing it this way they can't come back later and say "But you drive on non-approved tires” if anything happen
Of course, here on the forum I have seen people driving on this rim/tire combo and saying it’s no problems. In fact, when searching for tire/rims on may dealers here, they even offer a rim/tire combo for Crosstar in dimension 205/50R17
I will report back my experiences when I put these tires on in November
