it's not tire size that makes the difference, it's the fitment, the relation between the offset, fender clearance, poke, camber, toe, and tire size/stretch
with those rather conservative offsets, you arent even going to be flush, much less "VIP or EXE"
those tire sizes are if you are running very EXTREME/aggressive offsets, which you are not.

and even the VIP subforum here on CL.
