Anyone switched from 215/50R18 to 225/55R18 on a 100% stock Taos?

Hey everyone, has anyone here gone from the stock 215/50R18 to 225/55R18 AT Tires on a Taos? I want to put Grandtrek AT5 tires on my 100% stock 2024 FWD Taos Comfortline and would love to know if it fits, if there’s any rubbing, and how it affected ride quality, fuel economy, or speedometer accuracy. Pics would be great too. Thanks!

I'm thinking about changing the stock 17x7" ET45 wheels and 215/50R18 tires on my 2024 FWD Taos Comfortline for a set of 17x7.5" ET35 wheels with 215/55R17 tires.

I’m not trying to do anything crazy; I just want a slightly more rugged look and offroad capabilities. The car is still on stock suspension, so I just want to make sure I’m not going to end up with rubbing or wheels sticking out too much.

Has anyone here tried this setup, or something close to it? I'm from Peru and here tire shops don't let you try fitment before purchasing, so...

Would appreciate any real-world feedback or pics. Thanks!
