front should be good, it will rub in the rear most likely

I have that size tire on my Legacy. They rub on the struts just a tad, but after a few hundred miles, the edge wears down so that it doesn't really rub anymore. I am sure that would bother some people to do that, but it worked for me. They aren't even close to rubbing anywhere else.
