My actual tires mfg and model is the same that you have and your size is the oem for mine also. No rubbing. The car actually looks better because the taller tires fit the fenderwell better. Is the load index for the tires that goes up a lot and solve the problem. Beware, if you hit a crater no tire will survive. So still be careful. But for the last year the car has hit some very serious holes, that I'm sure would have destroy the oem size tires and got away with no damage. Also the stiffer sidewall of the oem protect better the wheel from damage or wheel bending. Downside is a harsher ride quality than a standard tire. The security of not having to stop to change a tire or worse having to wait for a tow truck in the middle of nowhere or no man land, priceless.
