Default ordered my works today, 90 day wait and i need new

gonna get yoko AVS Es100... but i was wondering anyone ever run wider than:

205/55 16 front
225/50 16 rear?


i was thinking

225/50 on oem front wheels and

245/45 on oem rears....


i know it prolly woudlnt hit since my new wheels are 225/40 285/30 on 18's...

but i was wondering about will the wheels hold em?

im not use to high profile tires on small wheels.. normally i stick to rubber bands VIP style.

If you are talking about putting the ES100 on your OE wheels then the 225/50R16 and 245/45R16 will work no problem.
If I can help with the tires let me know.
