The rims will be fine, but what size tyres are you planning to fit? If you still have the wide belt you don't have much spare room back there for a wider tyre, if that's what you have in mind!

What size 3.5? You should be fine as long they they have the proper bearings. But once again, not enough info on anything to give a better answer.
