225/50/16 on 09 MCS with Stock Rims?

Will a 225/50/16 Kumho XS or Dunlop Star Spec fit on a 09 MCS with the factory Star wheels without rubbing? Car has factory springs and Koni Yellow shocks.

Thanks

Seems like some mixed info probably due to the fact that a 225/50/16 in one tire could be as much as a 1/4 inch wider in section width to another. We'll stick with a 205/50 or 215/45.
