205/55r15 On 8th Generation Corolla?

hi community...
this is will be my first post on toyotanation.com

i recently got a 2001 toyota corolla LE from my Godfather, also, i bought a set of 15" scion xd oem [COLOR=#000064 !important][COLOR=#000064 !important]wheels[/COLOR][/COLOR], but i'm not sure about what size of tire should i buy to wrapped up these 15" wheels. i have a dilema between 205/55rR15 or 205/50R15, anyone have these sizes on their corolla 1998-2002? any rubbing issues? if there are no rubbing i will prefer to install the 205/55rR15 instead 205/50R15, because i like more rubber.

thanks for helping me, i will post some pictures of my wheels after installation

Scion XD's have a 5x100 bolt pattern. The 8th gen Corolla is 4x100 so they won't be compatible.

If you get 15" wheels that fit, get 205/50/15.

205/55/15's will likely rub since the aspect ratio is too high.
