Will 16” 7J et38 wheels fit my mcs r56?

Hi I was wondering if 16 inch, 7J, et38 wheels will fit my mcs r56. The tires I will use are 195/55/16. I currently use 16x6,5j et48 stock wheels as my winter wheels and I really feel like it’s lacking in visuals and I’m looking for a wider look.

With 195/55-16 tires, you should be good.

Comparing 16x7 et 38 to 16x6.5 et 48 OEM wheels

The new wheels will be 3.7mm further from the inner suspension and poke out 16.4mm more. As long as you don't use really wide tire sizes you should be OK.
