whatever percentage decrease in diameter, will be the increase in acceleration. (for a given gear etc etc...)
this page is coool!!! compare your tyre sizes and tells you % difference!!!!!!!

for the sizes you mentioned the 195 will be 5.3% smaller in diameter, and so you will have 5% more acceleration. maybe not enough to feel by 'seat of the pants dyno', but it is still 5% faster!!
