245 is pretty damn wide. I'd assume you're NOT mounting them on the stock wheels, right?
Either that, or maybe you meant 225/50-16? That fits no problem and greatly improves handling. Looks better IMHO too

yeah 225 fits. 245 will not fit and 245/50/16 would be to tall anyways. you probably meant 225

Your stock wheels are 6.5" wide. 225/50 is the widest. Any wider and you're risking more than you can gain.

Dang, i've got 225's on my 18x7.5's. I can't imagine 245's or even 235's on 16x6.5's.
