They will fit, but I wouldn't recommend using them on the street.

What I meant was I wouldn't use a tire that is basically a slick with a few straight threads put in them so they will meet DOT approval on a car that would be seeing a fair amount of street miles. They would not be safe in the rain or during hard cornering.
