Expert Reply:
Yes they will work as long as the rim you have has a width in the range from 5 inches to 6-1/2 inches.
Since you're going to a larger tire you also have to consider the reduced wheel well clearance. I have included a couple of resources to refer to as well.
There isn't much of a difference in diameter, but any time you change tires you will want to have 4.5 inches of clearance from the top of your tread to the bottom of your wheel well in clearance so there is no interference.
