I have some like new 225/45/17 Kumho MX tires I am considering putting on the stock EVO8 rims.

Do you think these would be okay?

i put on 225's on my front wheels for 2 months as a quick fix cause i needed winter tires (the advans a046 are incredibly scary in the snow if you want to stop the car), and there weren't any problems except that i scratched the crap out of my rims cuz the tires sit a further on the rim at an angle from the edge
