Some 205/55's can probably survive on a 5.5 although personally I'd want 6.5 or 7 minimum. If you go to tirerack.com, find the tires in the proper size, click on the photo of the tire, the click on "specs" at the top when the detail page comes up, you can get the manufacturer's detailed spec's for your particular tires including specific widths per size. I make no statements on whether a wider rim will work on the car itself... someone who knows the model will have to comment.
