Konig Monsoon and rim size question

First, I wouldn't mind seeing some pictures of these rims on an LT1 TA, if they're available. I checked Brent's website, and couldn't find any.

Second, they only 16" rim size they have is 16x7. I checked Kumho's website, and it says their 255 50R16 712's can be mounted on rims from 7-9" in width. Will there be any problems with mounting this tires on 16x7 rims?

Pulled from Tirerack.com:

For Kumho Supra Ecsta 712 in 255 50R16 - Rim width range: 7"-9" Meas. Rim Width: 8"

For 245 50R16's they say the same Rim Width Range, but Meas. Rim Width is 7.5".

So 245's should be ok, right?

245/255 tires on a 7" rim will fit, but will bubble out and in my opinion look like ***, also, why konig's? They are the cheap rims we(discount tire)keep in stock when someone ***s up their wheels and just needs some cheap replacements. Unless ur not looking to spend alot of money, id get something better(and wider ).

I guess they looked aight to me

I'm on a budget too, so options are slim I s'pose. 16x8 it is.
