Default 20's on a accord?

Alright i drive a 01 honda accord ex coupe. last year i had 17's on it and the rims just seemed extremly small for the car so this year im thinkin about getting some 20s. the tire size of the 17s was 205/40R17. now the tire size of the 20s will be 225/30/20. im almost possitive they will fit im just worried that when i turn i dont rub the tires. i dont know how else to test this besides buying the tires then testing because i will haft to order online.
any suggestions would be great

actually that wheel size doesn't look to bad at all. i'll stand by my 18's or maybe 19's with nice drop and a lip kit however. to each his own though, don't let us tell ya how to build your car man.

Looks like he only has 20's for the rear. The front seems to be 19's.
You can go with 19' and lower the car a bit and still have a smooth ride.
