55's are too tall. Go with a 205-50-15. 55's won't rub but they will look big.

I had those on another car, trust me they are a major improvement from what was on there, not to mention when I got the car the tires were bald and couldn't afford new ones so being that I already had these and they only had like 8000 miles on them it was a better choice. Would eventually like to sell these and get some 7 spoke white wheels.
