Yes they fit, have them on mine. You won't notice much difference in normal road driving other than they tramline a bit more. Look better and in theory give better lateral grip at the limits at the expense of straight line traction. Worn Falken 452s tramline like crazy in that size but were fine till they went below 3mm tread.

What make do you have on yours currently? Falkens? I have seen some Toyo Proxies at a good price and wondering whether to try them.
