Well, speaking of tires rubbing..., 225/50-16 on 7x16 stock wheels ... any rubbing trouble?. S60

Given the prior thread, www.brickboard.com/AWD/index.htm?id=1115647, that prompted me to ask this (for a '07, which the pull-down doesn't accommodate yet):

I'm looking ahead a few months when I plan to replace the stock 205/55-16 tires with 225/50-16. It's the exact same rolling circumference, but a serious upgrade in traction (from Michelin MXV4 in H to Pilot Exalto PE2 in W).

Assuming the stock 7x16 wheels, should there be any concern about rubbing?

Thanks.
