Default Help with new wheels

Hi,

I have a 2001 A3 and want to replace the wheels as tyres bald and alloys in v bad state. The current wheels are 16" but i know you need to be careful with other aspects???
Anyhow this is the reading from the current wheel: 195/65 R15 91v

The wheels i want to buy are: 205/55 R16. The studs are fine, both 5 studs. Can i replace my existing wheels with the ones above?

Thanks for any help,
Freya.

As long as the stud pattern is the same as the old ones it should be fine, wether they are bigger or smaller wont matter unless you go up a lot of sizes.

Your question is a little confusing. Are you wanting to replace your wheels and your tires?
