yes, I think that's ok. definitely on the 7.5 inch anyway. In fact, that's not too much stretch on the 7.5.

Yup tis fine, i have 195/45 r15's on the 8j front and 215/45 r15's on the 9j rears. Its a lot easier to kerb the wheels though. I'd recommend toyo proxes as some tyres don't stretch very easy.
