Yes, 225, can substitute 215 since it is width of a tire and doesn't play huge role. Also, because we are only talking about tiny difference.

Know that even though you are only talking about a small difference in diameter your speedometer will be off. Another replacement would be a 225/50-18.

Stock Tire - 215/55R18 |>Search Tires Tire 1 - 225/55R18

Section Width: 8.46 in 215 mm |Section Width: 8.85 in 225 mm

Actual Speed: 60 mph 100 km/h |Speedometer1: 59.0 mph 98.4 km/h

Can it? Yes. Should you use this size? No. Your speedometer will read 58 at a true 60 mph. Handling, performance, ride, and fuel mileage will be adversely effected. If you want to go to a 55 series tire then install size 215/55-18 which is an excellent substitute.

Driving in the snow on 225/50/R18 is worse than on 195/60/R17, if the same tires are used.. the tire width is what matters in snow!
