Default Will 205/60-16 fit my non-sport B5 A4 Avant? Yes or no.

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/27563/avant04.jpg"></center><p>I am currently running my leftover 215/55-16s from my B6 and am very pleased. I like the extra ride-height and cushion on the roads around here, but I think the more narrow 205s would grab down into snow better. I always felt that 205/55-16s were too small anyway. Here is the kicker, 205/60s would cost me a good $20 less than 215s. Falken 205/60-16s are only $63 delivered. This size is only 1.5% bigger than the 215s and about 1/2 inch taller. Am I crazy? Yes or no?
