      Sounds like they'll fit if you haven't lowered the car.

      You're speedometer/odometer would read 8% too slow.

      I put a set of 195/55-15s on the GF's Aveo and they do rub at full lock if the suspension is compressed.

      Check your current setup with what you're planning: Online Wheel and Tyre Fitment Calculator. Offset, Tyre Stretch and Speedo Error | Will They Fit

      Picked them up on the Weekend and compared to the Stock Rubber they look Huge - May Have to Rethink this !

      Yes, you should rethink about getting those tires. There are better options you can choose from. It might work if you are having your car lowered though.

      I run a 205/50r16 during Spring , summer, fall. Then I use a 185/70r14 during the winter. Both fit fine.
      As far as throwing off your speedometer, just put a GPS in the car and compare the vehicle speed with the
      speedometer. Mine is off about 3 mph @ 65 and about 4-5 mph @ 70.

      Rule of thumb. Stock size is 185/60/14 outside diameter needs to remain the same and to do this the tread with (185) can go up one (195), aspect ratio (60) needs to go down 1 (55) and wheel size(14) go up one (15) 195/55/15 205/50/16 and so on

      I have 16's on my 2006 aveo 5 and they are great with stock suspension. I tried 17's for a while but they rubbed a little on front during sharp turns.
