What size tires should a guy run on 16" fuchs on a lowered bay window? Narrowed beam (4")

Do they fit  Ok? The 7's have a odd offset for use on the front.

Not sure yet. Still in the planning stages..... you think with a 4" beam I'll still be out? I have the wheels and parts for the beam but will also need to run adapters from the 112 to the 130
