Be aware that even if your rims can fit a tire at the extreme limits such as my 6" Fuchs with a 225, it may not be a improvement, especially for track events. The sidewalls are actually at an angle instead of straight up and down, and this allows some unsteadiness and unfavorable handling at very high speeds. Along with this, the tire ballons somewhat. This is why changing to 7" rims and keeping 205's is popular for the front. Sometimes the widest tire is not the best.
