Anyone running 215/50/16 tires on stock X lites?

I'm looking at upgrading from my stock runflats for something a little meatier. I'm looking at 215/50/16s. I did a search on tirerack, and came across the Dunlop Direzza DZ101. They look like a pretty good tire, and come in this size. Will these tires fit without rubbing problems? I'll be stock height, on the X lites.

215/50/16 will require some dremel work if you have people in the back regularly.
