195/75R14 OK on a W126?

The stock 205/70R14 tires on my silver 380SE W126 are shot. It's a Sunday driver and not driven hard. I'm thinking of running 195/75R14 size. Will the speedo be accurate?

I noticed this thread: People with 14" wheels, what size tires are you running? where some members are running this size on their 300D with the same bundt wheels. Would this be OK with the weight of the W126?

The wheels on the 123 300D are not the same size as those on the 126. the 126 ones are wider.
