Default V70 rims on an 850

My neighbor has a V70 with a blown turbo that he's parting out, which is great because I need new tires. The V70 T5 has 205/55-16, but tire rack says to use either 205/50-16 or 205/55-15. Am I going to be fine?

Thanks,

Yes, you should be fine. That is one of the optional sizes for the Platinum edition.

Meaning, that is the size of tires listed on my sticker on the inside door of the gas door.

Thanks a lot you guys. And I'm in Madison not Milwaukee. Madison is a lot prettier but the beer still flows like water.
