um, that entirely depends on what wheel size you are running. If you have stock wheels then no because they are 16's or 15's.

They would work if you had a 17in wheel to go along with it, but they are a little too tall for my taste 225-45 would be a little better

205/40 has virtually no sidewall. I'd stay away from those. To put it in perspective, the 225/50's would be 2.4" taller.
