Tire sizing, Wanting to raise ride height Options

[lockdown204]

Hi Everyone!
I'm looking to replace my tires.
Stock ones are 215/50R16
I want to move to 215/60R16.
Reasons are:
- Raise Ride Height (a bit of a WRC feel)
- better cushioning
- less chance of curb rash

Theoretically, this change should raise the height by ~1.8 inches.

My question is, will this rub the wheel wells at lock?
and, is the stock suspension capable of accommodating this at compression?

Car in question is:
ST205 1994

thanks!
