It will fit the wheel fine, but not so hot on the car.

not a 7 inch rim but 225/50 is too much. i have on my temp rims in the rear.

moderately lowered, and they rubbed when i had the stock wheels in the back seat/trunk.

When I ran the 225/50/16 Hoosier in the front, it rubbed like crazy. Ended up wearing the inside to the point it corded and let loose.......On the race track at 70mph in full-tilt!

depends on the offsets, depends on how lowered you are. i run 225's on 16" rims and i have no rubbing. i will check when i am home the full tyre specs for you.
