Hankook seems to be a great bang for the buck these days for our cars. I see more and more interest in these tires.

maximum recommended tire widths for the rears are 255's, to your question to if it's safe or not then probably no, given a circumstance you have a higher chance of tire failure, if you go to wide of a tire on such a narrow rim. Why do you want such stagger widths anyways.
