someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure the width of your tires depends on the width of your wheels. So, under that assumption, if you have stock wheels you can't have tires any wider than the stock set up. Now, if you have wider, aftermarket wheels, that's a different story. But like I said, someone correct me if I'm wrong. I'd also like to see any of you with a wider, aftermarket set up.

Will work fine on OEM and FJ wheels.
See below, sorry no pics but there is another sublink if you read through that should have some.

It's possible. Someone had a thread on here with pictures of wider tires on stock GX wheels but I don't have the link. Looked pretty good from what I remember.
