    Stock 16" aluminum wheels are 8" wide. The biggest tire you will want to put back there is a 255/50/16. I wouldn't put a 235 up front, a 245 would be a better choice due to sidewall height. You could put a 225/60/16 up front as it would have the correct overall tire height, that size was the standard size tire on lessor models and also included a lower reading speedometer display, the 245/50/16 was a factory upgrade and included the 160mph speedo. The 225 and the 255 combo would be the choice if you want the "drag" look. The downside is that ultimate handling will suffer and you won't be able to rotate tires.
