Two questions about holies, or 5.5 inch rims:

Question 1: Has anyone run a 205 tire on a rim this narrow with good results?

Question 2: On a MCS with 17 inch rims, does switching to a 15" rim bump you out of stock?

The answers to both questions are "yes".

In GS, a MCS can only run 16x6.5 or 17x7 wheels of the appropriate offset. For HS, a MC can only run 15x5.5 or 16x6.5.

Generic rule of thumb - if you couldn't order that exact combination of options from the factory for your model year it isn't stock legal.
