Question about tire size

I bought some wheels and tires off a 2000-2004 Outback Legacy to put on my 1992 Legacy. They are 16x6.5 with a 225/60-16 tire. The probem is they rub on the struts, the tires not the wheel. What size tire would fit better? 205/50-16 is what Ive seen. I paid $180 for the wheel/tire combo with 2 new michelins but a local shop will buy/trade for the tires I got. I just need some advice on a tire size Thanks Damian

205/55/16 is another option that should fit and is cheaper and more common

Thanks I will see what they have tommorrow. Even though the 225/60/16 filled the wheelwell quite nicely Just couldnt turn left or right or take off without smoke and a annoying "zzzzzzzzzzzzz" sound from every tire
