That's the right tire size for your car, but those wheels are MUCH too wide and that size tire should NOT be mounted on a wheel that wide. (It is UNSAFE and just a bad idea all around.) 205/45-16 tires are usually approved for mounting only on rims 6.5-7.5 inches wide. I recommend 16x7 rims.

You can make it work.

You're going to need a good amount of camber in the back, and a pull of the fenders....it's def possible. I did an EK recently, and was surprised by how much room there was in the fender wells.

NOT SAFELY. When you mount tires on wheels that are wider than those approved, stress and heat can build up in the sidewalls, leading to tire failure. DON'T DO IT.
