A majority of people here will tell you how unsafe that is. I've personally ran 215/40's on a 9.5" wheel on another platform for 2 years with zero issues. Just pump up the tire pressure a bit more than the recommended specs and stay away from potholes.

It's not that bad of a stretch so you're okay.
