Can I use this size of tire on my MCS?

Hey guys, Austin my MCS is in dire and I do mean dire need of some new shoes and right now I have the tires and wheels that came on the car. I have the R84's and the 195/45/16's and I was wondering if I could put some 205/50/16's on him, and If I do will do hurt or help in anyway? If not I'll just put the same OEM size back on him. Thanks

205/50 is a great choice compaired to OE.

I have 205/50/16s on my '02 MC. No fitment issues at all. Anything is going to be an upgrade vs. the OEM tires. I have Bridgestone Potenza G009s and they are great, but there are stickier options out there.
