Yes, they fit fine. Except your speedo will be off by about 3% - if your speedo says you're doing 100km/hr, you'll actually be doing 103km/hr - which is borderline legal/illegal. Try to get 215 series tyres, maybe 40 profile (which would mean your speedo is off by 1%, but reading too fast... so if you're doing 100km/hr on your speedo, you're actually going 99km/hr)
