They shouldn't rub unless your wheel offset is not right.

Diameter looks fine (+1.4%).

225mm is the widest you can really go without having too much problems with rubbing.

I've said on this forum MANY times. Rubbing is dependent on rim width and offset, as well as width of the tire.

Assuming that no one here is dumb enough to mount 245 tires on a 7" rim, the tire width is secondary to the correct rim width and offset.

I have 18x8s with +45 offset with no problem.
