Yes. They may also hit the brake calipers.

HI II,
I agree that they'll likely hit the calipers…. very close even with 15's.

I agree with the others. Forget the 14s. Are you sure you have 16s now or did you mean 15s which is the stock diameter for a C3?

Is that what the tire sidewall says? If they're 16s they're not stock.
