GO TO A GOOD RIM AND TYRE SPECIALIST.
There are set measurements when rims are fitted. As long as these match you can fit any make of rim.
Take your car details they will be able to suggest rims that will fit.
If you don't, things get complicated.
You will need to check the following.
-Number of wheel bolts/nuts. (4 or 5).
-wheel bolt/nut spacing. (Distance between opposite holes).
-Rim diameter.
-Rim width.
-Rim offset. (How far the rim sticks out of the wheel arch.
-Rim edge type.
-Tyre size.

SOURCE: VW Passat Estate on Alloy wheels with 235/45/ZR17

okay, 235 is the tread width 45 is the profile(the distance from the wheel to the road)ZR is the speed rating(over 120mph)17 is the wheel diameter.so to get the same tread width 225 would fit(cheaper than 235)45 needs to be thicker cos of 16" not 17" wheels and 1"=25.4mm 75 would be the choice.because winter tyres are designed for speeds less than 70mph "R" would be suitable.
all together 225/ 75(or 85) R 16.....SNOW TYRE/WINTER TREAD.

What rim size for a 215/55/16 tyre? I currently have all 4 tyres on as-supplied alloy wheels, each December I change my fronts for winter tyres, for which the tyre shop make a charge. I am thinking about...

16 is the rim size and most modern ones will take 215 tyre. Of more concern is the PCD (which dictates how holes line up) would suggest a trip to a breakers and get 4 from any VW Passat (or other) of similar age

Snow Tires

This is going to effect your ABS and odometer readings. Suggest sticking with the 17 inch tires and can use your original rims.
