My car is a 2017 VW Jetta. My current tires are Firestone 205/55R16 91H M+S and they desperately need to be changed. Got a friend that works at a junkyard that found previously said tires for me and I want to make sure that they'll fit on the wheel before I waste his time. Will they or won't they?

There's honestly a chance you could fail for it being too far out of the normal size. But the person inspecting probably isn't checking for that. If it's just to pass inspection then that should work.
