Default Will it be okay if I mount 215 series tires on my 6.5 in wide rim?

I just picked up a set of SSR RS8s for my EJ coupe and i'm running 205/45/16 es100 right now. I would like to purchase a set of falken azenis for the track, the thing that sucks is that falken don't offer 205/45 series tires for 16" rims (they offer 205/55 and 215/45).

I was wondering if it'll be safe to run the 215/45/16 azenis without causing any inherent problem such as tire rubbing, etc. etc.

Will it bulge out a lot? if mounted on a 6.5 wide rim?

To all the tire heads here at honda-tech...your replies would be greatly appreciated...thanx...
