Feedback after 200 kilometers..

Don't. Don't go too wide.

From 205/75 to 225/75R15 you LOSE a lot...

- road handling (obvious)
- cornering stability (obvious)
- ACCELERATION (significant)
- mpg (to be checked)
- road noise (obvious)

I like the beefier look, but for a road car (my main usage) the best choice would have been 215/75R15 maybe.

Hey, I've been there (Place de la Concorde), unfortunately it was during the Tour de France (2019). I wanted to pull my hair out, with all the blocked roads & driving around, trying to get back to Stuttgart.

Looks like you just need some original "Jeep" center caps to complete the original look.
