I didn't have the money before to get in on the group buy at simply tire and now I'm behind the eight ball. I found on craigslist a set of 205-60-16 blizzaks that were a good deal. I was wondering if theses would be ok on my GT? Thanks.

Speedo will under-read by 2.2%, which is less than than 3% recommended maximum, so is acceptable. (When speedo reads 100 you will be really doing 102.) Wheel-fender gap will be reduced by 7mm, not a problem unless you are dropped quite a bit.
You would be fine with these.

Claudio,
We still have some selection in the 205/55/16 size, which would be a stock size, and keep your speedo in check. Dunlop, and Continental for sure are in the shop.
Shoot me a PM if you need anything.
Thanks
John
