You can use either tire but I would use the 205/55/15, wider with less sidewall . Don't go much wider than that or you'll have clearance issues with the tire's rubbing the fender well or spring.

205/55-15 would be better, safer and perform better.

205/60/15 would be closer to your oem size.

it's almost a perfect match I put them on my OEM rims instead of the 195/65/15 and the speedo isn't off by a noticable ammount.

but yeah your current tires will fit the lude rims just fine.
