A 225mm width tire will fit fine on a 7.5in width rim.

Go to http://www.Tirerack.com and select your specific vehicle for rims, then choose all the different kinds that interest you and they will appear on your vehicle in the size you choose as well. Tirerack has pretty good prices and they ship to your door mounted and balanced. You can't compare anyone else to the mounting and balancing that they will perform on your set. You shouldn't have to pay tax as well.

Have fun in your selection process.

For what

Are you going for better handling with no speed loss or great handling and looks. The bigger the rim the slower your car will be.
