Ideally, you want to maintain something close to stock F/R stagger. I don't recommend running a 245 series tire on 7" wide rims.

You actually don't have enough information to tell if those wheels will fit on the car. You need a high offset and the car does have different center bores front and rear. The factory size tires will fit on a 16X7 wheel though.

Jim is right, depends on centerbore/hub configuration, and offset as well.
