I apologize, I just went down to the basement to look at the tires with my Dad and they are 215/60 16's, NOT 225/60 16's. If this makes any difference? He said they should be fine. (not saying he is a master tire tech...that is his opinion...)

not much, there might be a small odo correction, stand them next to each other or measure them, 1 inch is only about 5 percent or are we talking about a different tire/rim?
If a tire is more than 2 sizes different than stock, the shop won't install them

With the tires you state above, the sides may well be at their max. a perfect sixteen inch improve may well be a 205-60-sixteen tire for a rim 5.5 to 7.5 inch width. you will be able to desire to have a great form of fender clearance and somewhat greater pot hollow protection and journey top. The diameter of the 225-50 tire is 24.9" at the same time as the 205-60 tire is 25.7" which ability a three% diameter develop for somewhat greater effective gas mileage.

There's only a 6mm height difference between those two. You probably won't notice the difference.
Different tire companies size their tires differently (one brand of 215/60R16 can be quite a bit wider than another brand's 215/60R16) but they'll still probably be close enough not to worry about.

Wouldn't work, your new ones are gonna be wider than the rims on your car.
And even if they did fit, your speedometer and odometer would report inaccurate speeds/mileage.
