205/70/15 = 668 mm
215/75/15 = 787 mm
Difference of 19 mm, that should fit ;)

Yes.
There's three ways of doing things:

The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

When I first got my sj I fitted 215r15 tyres with no lift and they rubbed on the front bumper mounting plates, however I just cut/ground the plate back to near the nut and bolt & they just missed. Just give it a good check before driving very far as this edge may cut into the tyre. They only rubbed with quite a bit of lock on.
