Maybe a bit more understeer?

Should be fine.  You could even go 225F/215R.  I doubt anyone would notice

Ok cheers for that

What are the actual size of the tyres, there is more to it than just the width. If the sidewall percentage results in a too much difference in the rolling radius the ABS and Traction control could throw a hissy fit and turn on the fault lights for ESP and ABS.

I would have thought that would be a great way to void your car insurance.

 

Off the top of my head, I don't know of any production FWD road car in the UK with narrower tyres on the front axle.

 

You can get a pair of 225 Rainsport 3's for only £150 - I just have. Then sell your 215's elsewhere.

I've got 225 tyres on my originals so may just swap those over to save any hassle. Cheers
