Will this work?

I currently have 215-55-16 tires on the 2000 OE wheels put on a 4th gen. Would 225-55-16 tires work on the same rim or would it be pushing it? Should I consider 205-60-16 as another alternative?

I wanted to get the new Continental ContiExtremeContact DWS but no place online has them in stock for the 215-55-16 size. However they do have the 225's. So can anyone think of why it wouldn't work, I dont think rubbing will be a problem since I am not lowered at all.

They are on backorder at tirerack. As with every other online vendor. When I talked to discount tire online the guy said they were backed up by 1600 pieces for that size. Might be 2 months before they get anything.
