Default 1st gen Crv, bigger tire question.

Hey guys I have a 97 crv and in need of tires, the tires are currently 205/70R15. I was going to put some 215/75/R15 but finding those size tires in all-terrains for a good deal is near impossible. However I did come across some 225/70R15 all-terrains for a good price and was wanting to know if they would fit my 1997 crv? Also the crv is not lifted, bone stock.
Any advice is appreciated thanks guys.
