Wide tires

Hi, Has anyone put a 255/45/r16 on an 8 inch rim before? I figure a 245/45r16 will work fine but I really want to fill in these 3" CCC fenders. For interests sake the rims are 16x8 fuchs with 10.6mm offset. My worry is that a 45 wall 255 will be too wide (10") with too small of a side wall to fit properly on a 8" rim. THe 245 is 9.6" and have read that it will work with a 45 wall on a 8" rim. Any pointers? Thanks

Mike
