Staggered tire size options?

Would a 195/65r15 be too small for the front?
I have a 195/65x15 on a 3 1/2"centerline on my 62 savoy. It was the only size tire I could find locally quickly, and I wanted to make a race date.
I think it looks ridiculous on my car, too short, too wide for the rim it's on.
It might work in the smaller wheelwell of your scamp....but it wouldn't be my first choice.
