Question 16" Steelies on a 2010 Camaro?

I have a buddy who is willing to sell me some barely used snow tires for $100. The only catch is they are 16" tires and I can't seem to find a 16" steel wheel to go with them. Is this even possible on a Camaro?

The tire size is: 195-55-16

Thanks in advance!

I don't believe you can use 16" wheels on the stock V6 brakes - but I've been wrong before.

Uhhh.. sorry?

It was a serious question, but thanks for the condescending response anyway.
