winter tires

So I ordered some snow tires and they sent me the wrong size, 205/60/15. there's 205/55/15 on there now with no issues. rather than deal with shipping the tires back and getting a refund, i'd like to see if they would fit. car is a 91 gt-4. if they wont fit i'll probably try to sell them locally and reorder from a different company. anyone have an idea?

They are taller, the second number is the aspect ratio and is a percentage of the tire width (first number). Look up "tire calculator" online and it'll show you the difference in sizes and what will fit.
