Hello Chicago:
Welcome: Yes the package will work except I will recommend the tires be  215/50/17 and don't forget the Tuner lugs are 12mm x 1.50 : Your right on with your offset of 42 to 55 ET..
 
Post a picture of whatever you buy when you get them installed..

Well the thing is he's selling his rims with these tires already mounted on. They have about 75% tread remaining so I didnt want to have to buy new tires. Are they going to look too skinny?

I second 02Blue's recommendation.  The 205s wont be too skinny, per se, but 215s or even 225s would be better on a 7.5 inch wide wheel.

Sweet, sounds good!  What kind of rims are they, by the way?

Here is the ad posted by the guy i bought them from:

http://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/pts/282653038.html


They are in very nice condition, tires look almost new. The only thing is when i got them on my car there was barely any clearance (only about 3mm) between the wheel and my brake caliper so I took them off. Is there a spacer solution to this, or would hub rings work?
