youre going to rub, 205's are pretty chunky. it also depends on what offset, but if youre going greater than +45 youll be garaunteed rubbing even on a 195 with a 7.5 offset

yeah youll rub, not too much, but it'll be there with that width. you should really try going for a 195/50 or 195/45 tire, because 205/50 is going to bery VERY chunky.

haha thanks. 195/45 arent bad, ive run them on all my cars. i have the 195/50 ziexs right now and theyre great, just a bit too chunky, so ill get some toyos when they go bald. id say 15x7 would probably be your best width, it gives you a lot of room to play with offset. mine are 15x7 +32 with minimal rubbing. if you did decide to get the 15x7.5, id say to stick top no more than a +40 if rubbing really bothers you.

i dotn have a pic of the difference, but i think it makes a differene, especially if its just that little bi that helps with rubbing.

as for offset? if your not looking for anything crazy and dont want rubbing, if you go by 7 id stick with +30 or higher. like i said mine are +32 and im okay. if you go 7.5, id keep it above 40.
