Default umm

what happens If I use a 180/55 tire in a 5.0 rim ? ?
I know it will go higher and that handling will be worst for experienced drivers, but will it fit?? cause I think it will make contact with the support (we call it horse)

installed 180/55 tire in a 5.0 rim and it works perfectly, there are only 2 problems, the bike is like an inch higher , and also the bike gets dirt quicker.
