How are stock 225's wider than these 225's? They will be slightly taller though.
225 - Section Width of tire
50 (55) - Height of tire (tread to wheel) as a percentage of width. so 225/50 has a height of 112.5mm and 225/55 has a height of 123.75mm.
16 - Rim Diameter
So theoretically these tires are as wide but 22mm larger diameter (11mm radius) . Although with differences between brands they could be almost identical.
