They will go on your standard alloys no problem

Just remember fancy wheels are nice but it's the tyres that do the job

YES 15"x7" ET 0 ET-7 ET-15
offset is on the wheel as ET..ET 0 is standard size meaning your wheels are 15" x 5.5J....J meaning wheel width 5.5"
So -7 et means wheel will stick out towards the arch edge by 7mm....ET-15 wheel will stick out 15mm further than standard wheel
A 205 width tyre will fit 7" rim But the tyre wall will be more straight up no tyre bulge so you could catch your rim on curb
