Fits fine. I've seen that size on Legacies/Imprezas a few times before.
93 Touring Wagon (EJ20G 5spd Swap) -- Finally back and running strong as ever!
05 Outback 2.5XT 5spd -- Now the wife can have her SUV and get in on the turbo Legacy goodness at the same time.

Re: will these snow tires fit?
I think they'll be a little on the tall size, but may work. According to http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html
The stock tire (185's) will have the following specs:
Sidewall: 5.1 in
Radius: 12.1 in
Diameter: 24.2 in
Circumference: 76.0 in
Revs/mile: 834.0
New tire (205) will have following specs
Sidewall: 5.6 in
Radius: 12.6 in
Diameter: 25.3 in
Circumference: 79.5 in
Revs/mile: 797.0
Speedometer reading with non-stock tire is 4.6% too slow.
When your speedo reads 60 mph, you are actually traveling 62.7 mph.

Re: will these snow tires fit?
It will definitely not rub the strut.
