Will our stock tires fit

Will the 205/55/16's fit on a 16x7 in rim?

I think i am just going to buy a set of new rims that are 16's ad move my tpms and tires over to save some cash for now....

will they fit on a 7in rim?

they will work for you, I'd recomend a 215 or a 225 when you replace them, but the 205's will work for you for now.

Me too! Buying a set of new rims that are 16's and move my stock tpms and tires over...

Will the 205/55/16's fit on a 16x8 rims as well? Or would 16x7's be best?

If so what rubber size would you recommended for the16x8's?

205/55-16 tires are too narrow to mount on 16X8 rims. For a 16X8, I recommend 225/50-16 or 245/45-16. Both are similar to the stock diameter but fit on 16X8 while staying in manuf. tolerances.
