Default 409 Wheel and tyre size changes

My 409 came with a collection of 15inch x 6J loose steel wheels, reckoned to be ex Mercedes Benz. The previous owner, Dale Allen, had been thinking of changing the wheels to 15 inch from 16, due to tyre availability. Current tyres are 175 x 16 which I would say are on a rim width of 4.5 J.
Is there any benefit of changing the tyres to the wider 185 size, I wonder?
