25mm equals 1 inch. U don't want 225 on there unless u want the stretch look. Unless u go 45 series it's gonna look stretched

Short answer, Yes. You can probably get a 215 on there. It will look dumb as hell though.
why?

no as bad but it will look similar. if you really want to go 225's and dont want the stretch look, you can go 45 series and it wont stretch as much but will look too tall imo.
