There shouldn't be any problem. You will just have to remember that the speedo will be off.

You should be just fine. If anything you'll get a tiny boost in height.

Those tires will fit on the rims, but I don't know if the rims fit on the Vibe. I thought we need 5x100,

The second gen 2.4s are different. They have a different bolt pattern (5x114.3). But all 1.8 Vibes have the 5x100 pattern.

The stock 16" tire size for 2009-2010 Vibes is 205/55/16, so a 205/60/16 should be fine.

Yep...

All 2003-2008 Vibes = 5x100

2009-2010 Vibe 1.8L Base = 5x100
2009-2010 Vibe 2.4L Base / AWD / GT = 5x114.3
