the 45 and 50 difference is the profile on tyre.

45 and 50 are the tyre profile's. the side of the tyre basically. you need a 195/45/15 tyre really.

*bangs head against wall*
It's not the offset it's the tyre aspect ratio.
the 195/50 15s are taller than the 195/45 15s, by 5% of the width.

thats the tyre you need yes. now for the wheels just pick the one you like... but ask for the offset. i have an offset of 35 on my alloys and there is no scrubbage with 40mm lowering. ideally, you'd want an offset of 45+ if you want to go lower.
