question about rim width
Would a 16x7.5 rim be too wide for a 205/55/16 tire? Whats the tire width range I can put on a 7.5 inch wide rim?

Just step up to a 225/50/16, it'll fill your wheel well and give you a better look.

Yeah, you can definitly go with 225 on a 7.5" wide wheel.......just keep the same overall height as the stock tires.

205/55/16 and 225/50/16 = same overall height
