Default Tires (can i do this)

Sooo with summer comming up im back from school and was thinking about having some fun with my car. I have 18" rims now and there pretty wide, i think the number is 245. So i was thinking about going to the junkyard and getting a bunch of skinny tires from like a camry or something and putting them on my car so i can do some donuts and such . Would this mess with anything on my car besides the normal wear that doing things like that does.

[&:] you can only fit so small of a tire on any certain rim, so if you go and try put a tire with a 185 tread width on an 8" wide wheel ,you might run into some problems.
Actually foget what I said, do it!!!

well actually going to the junk yard i was just gonna take the entire wheel off the car, so i can get a skinny tire thats maybe a 16" rim, that way i dont have to switch my rims, and i can burnout till the tires fall off ... so basically as long as the wheel will go on the car i can do it?
