Or if you don't mind replacing your tires every 6K miles fit 205-60x15 Yokohama A032 or A022. If these babies are anything like the A008 they will be brilliant in the dry but not so good in the wet. My personal opinion is that 205/55-15 is too wide with too short a side wall for mounting on a 6" rim i.e. any performance gain is going to be lost by the tire moving around on the rim. Look at the old BMW M3, they had 205/55x15 tires on 7" rims. Mind those kerbs!
