MI-Roger, I would guess those 9-5 wheels are either 6 or 6.5 inches wide. Here are the 6.5 inch wide ones:

So your 205 mm wide tires on those wheels would stick out more at the sidewall on a 6.5 inch wide wheel than would a 215 mm wide tire on a 7 inch wheel (the 7 inch wide wheel being 12.7 mm wider than the 6.5 inch wide wheel. But not by much, admittedly. If your 9-5 wheels are 6 inches wide, then the difference would be more pronounced.
I have 225's on my Viggen with the stock wheels and really like the look. The best view is from behind, with a wider profile to the tire, although I also like how the sidewall comes out from the lip of the wheel. No rubbing issues at all.
