Yes you will and those size tires are wrong you will need 215/60/17 for the correct rolling footprint..

Please, use small letter, cause writing with big ones in a forum is accepted as shouting.
I would suggest, using 17" wheels (R17/215/60). Their circumference is the same as your original 19s, TPMS sensors are something like 15 euros each at the dealer (at least in my country). Good tires (I prefer Nokian - both for summer and winter set) are 500 euro with the labor, and aluminum rims are also 500. So basically a full set should cost you 1060 euros with fitting included. In the picture attached, they're quite dirty, but guess you get the idea :)
On the second picture, the cap is 3D printed by me ;)

1.6 dCI, 2WD, Zen+ , Retractable Tow Bar.
RLink 2 - V9.0.34.610, Here Maps (2021/Q4) + TomTom POIs and SpeedCams (2021_06)

hi guys, ive been doing some research in to, different size wheels and tyres.
am I right in saying that if you want, you can go as low as ( R16x 215X65 ) up to a ( R225x45x19 ) which I have fitted at present on my
signature nav, (1.5 dci 110 b.h.p. ) as I have always preferred, high profile tyres... as I have been told , by (AOne ) they have got to match
the rolling radious, of the original factory tyres, and of course, the new (t.p.m.s. ) to go with them, and (R17x215x60 ) are advisable...
still not decided what to do come change time..
