my bad. I misread the 225/45 offer.

never mind, just get the regular rear size 225/50 on an 8x16 Fuchs.
See in my picture how it sits.

as the Yoko has an reinforced sidewall, you will not need the 245/45 stiffnes which a street tire needs on a 9x16

and the grip compensates the missing 20 width.

The A052 is a 245/45 option, though its a real race tire, like the Avon or Michelin. They are great for track but don't last long and have nearly no wet performance.
You don't want to change these rears 4-5 times a year.
