Tire Size?

Tire Size?
Alright, this isn't just completely about tire sizes but here I go.
I own a 95 civic Dx. Original tires are 175-70-13's.
I may be purchasing the rims found at the bottom of this, but with six tires with enough tread to last me this summer. They're 205-50-16's. I'm curious if they're going to rub or not. I know my speedometer will be thrown off, and I believe the correct size to put on is 205-14-16, but I just want to know if they'll fit without rubbing, I'll buy the right size next year.
Also, one more thing. Color. They're gold as you can see and I plan on painting my car Electron Blue Pearl. I've been thinking about doing them white powdercoat but I just want opinions. Thanks
Edit: If anyone knows what kind they are please tell me. They don't have centercaps and all I have to go on is on the other side it says EMR in a spot if that's significant.

The correct tire size would be 205/45-16. The 50 profile shouldn't really cause any problems as long as you're not heavily lowered.
Personally, I'd keep them gold if you're going with EPB paint.
