    No....thats a little over 10 inches of tire width on a 8 inch wheel. Think how ****ty it would be with an inch sticking out over the wheel on each side if you could even get it on there.

      Or the purpose it serves...
      I have 245/50/16 on my 17x8 or 8.5s and it sticks out a little, yes, but if I ever knudge a curb or something I won't scratch my rims [img]smile.gif[/img]

          yes they will fit wih tno problem. they will perform fine. However they are 1/2" taller than a 245 therfore it might throw your speedo off a little bit.
