Will these wheel/tires work?

I apologize for not figuring this out on my own and I did do some seraching, but i'm a really big newbie when it comes to this time/wheel stuff and would rather not go off my own guessing. Anyways, will these wheel/tires work?

Wheel specs:
16x8
5x114.3mm / 5x4.5 bolt pattern
+50mm offset

Tire specs:
MT ET Street (bias)
26x10.50x16

-Thanks!

The tires are good to go, the bolt pattern is good to go but that 50mm offset I dunno man. High 30's offset on our cars looks WAY tucked in I wouldnt run that offset myself.

we are running 5.5 inches of backspacing at least on ours. i would check into that and make sure you have at least 5.5 BS

his stock susp will be fine with those tires. if you need to find a cheap wheel set up, look into some 16" mustang wheels. they will be kinda narrow(7.5) but will work with those tires. I use to run 26x16 et strees on my old vert, it yanked the fronts a lil. now im running the 17s but they are too tall....gonna have to spray
