Your wheels will crack in half, your muffler will start to drag, and your fenders will fall off.

They should work fine. The 50 series will be about an inch taller, +/- a bit depending on the two tire brands.

Post pics of what your getting.

Just make sure they don't rub and keep in mind that your speedo and odo will be off.
