   Why do you want lower profle?
   Sizes you can fit and keep rolling radius the same are:
   195/50/14
   205/45/14
   215/40/14
   
   All will be stupid expensive

   As well as the above they wont last as long either. Your sacrificing longetivity the lower profile you go. And as stated above the actual expense of the tyre increases the lower the profile.
