Default tire popped, tire size question

so my rear driver side tire popped today, thank god i was on my street 3 houses down from my house, i already ordered tires at a local tire dealer to put on the car because of the condition of my tires, i did that today as well haha, so quick question, my car hasnt been lowered yet so i, currently the tire size is p205/55/r15, i have 2 spare p205/65/r15 tires, will these fit in the back, obviously not going to replace one of them with that tire for size issues, but do you think they will fit in the wheel well? this is only going to be a couple of weeks, so was just wondering

205/55 is already too big. 205/65 is even worse...its like adding an inch of sidewall. it might rub suspension parts, and u'll blow them out. i wouldnt recommend it, but i dont know the EXACT fitment.

oh the 55's came on the car, havnt had any problems, i thought the 65s looked a tad big, the 205/55's are seriously not that big, but thanks makes me a little more cautious about getting them put on. i just dont want to drive on a donut for 2 weeks...

that will fit make sure the thicker one is at the rear. when yu lower your car, it might be an issue for the thicker tire 65's

I have 195/55/15 on factory SE wheels, and I'm lowered. Also rolled front fenders. I can't tell you exactly how much I'm lowered because I don't know what springs are on the car, but you can see the car here..

like i said its temp, plus tires here in the 205/50-55/r15 are either hard to find, or extremely expensive...
