Of course you can but this would be a terrible swap. If you want to go with a 60 series tire then go with a 255/60-16 if you have no side clearance issues as it is a good swap.

Can 205 width tire sub for a 215 width tire?

Not if the OE is 215. A 205 could be too narrow for the rim. Depending on what type of vehicle it is you may be able to go up to a 225 but then the middle number must drop by 5. Example: 215/65/R15 could be replaced with a 225/60R15. Again it depends on the make model and year of the vehicle.

The only difference is that 215 tires are taller. The first number in the name (215) indicates the tire sidewall height, the second part (55) is the tire tread width, the third part (r) shows that the tire is a radial tire, and the fourth part (16) indicates the rim size.
