Oscar's can turn on a dime, a 55g works just fine. Not only that, but you don't really count the tail in the overall length of a fish.

To me 55s are never big enough for adult oscars. They get about 2'' too long.
I have never ever seen an oscar near 2'. I know this is a fish site but lets not "tell fish stories". they might get that big in the wild but not in home aquariums.
