Why do you want that size? What are you trying to accomplish? It's not only wider but 1.5" taller. That will throw off your speedometer and odometer by over 5%. I would not suggest going to that size.

it will also make the car look like a 4x4 due to increase in sidewall size--I would stay with the original size as well.

That being said, your should be ok, but you may have a rub when you go lock-to-lock.
