Yes, that would probably work on my lowered 200q as well, but I wouldn't
put
205/50-16 tires on an 8" wide wheel on my street car.  Reduces ride
quality,
much more prone to be scraped up.  I would, however, use 8" wide wheels
with
225 tires.  Also, 205/50-16 is not as good a match in terms of RPM as
the 205/
55-16, if you care about speedo error (the lower gearing would be a plus
in my
mind).
