Will a 225 fit without rubbing?

I'm looking to get a new set of tires for my Pro 5 and think that the 195's are too skinny for the rest of the car. Especially the stock Dunlops... Will a 225/45/16:

1. Fit on the stock rim?
2. Fit in the wheel well without rubbing on struts or anything?

Thanks
Matt

I do NOT believe you will find ANY 225/45/16 that is recommended to be used on a 6" rim...which is what our stock ones are.

so.....from that stand point...you are out of luck.

and LARGEST I remember anyone on the board getting to fit PROPERLY using aftermarket wheels are 215's
