white smoke and 215/55/16 ona '95 850 Turbo wagon 850

I've inherited a fairly well maintained 1995 850 Turbo wagon, but it has two issues.

First, if I let it idle (for about 5-10 minutes) lots of white smoke comes out of the exhaust. After driving, it slowly returns to normal. Doesn't seem to affect performce at all.

Second, it needs replacement tires and I have a set of 215/55/16 -- anyone use these (I assume they will fit ok/not too wide)?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
