Well, the key element, is 'Without any issues' really...

On my old GT, I had the arches flaired out at the rear, and ran, for a while 225/50/15's, on 7X15, with ET25...

And that's the key with your dilema really... The ET of the 16 rim matched against the rim size... If you guess correctly (and wisely), you'll possibly get away with it...
