As Juriy stated the risks involved in over sized tires to center of gravity and ill handling are the reasons the south has fewer and fewer red necks after plowing through fields of cotton, tobacco and weed as they spill their jim bean all over their camo seat covers.

Basically, you can put any tire you want under your vehicle providing it fits under the wheel tubs. HOWEVER: remember that each time you increase tire diameter, you are likewise increasing the amount of foot lbs of energy required to get the vehicle underway from a dead start and uphill. You will also be changing the final drive ratio which will cause inaccurate speedometer operation and also affect the speed sensor (if so equipped) output to the ecm. Making a small change such as going from a 225 tire to a 235, is OK as long as you note the speed inaccuracy, to avoid getting speeding tickets, but a jump of three sizes or more could result in driveline and performance problems. Putting in "lift kits" and giant tires looks hot, but unless its done correctly it causes more grief than it's worth, unless you are in need of additional grolund clearance for a specific reason.

The best way to find out information like that is to look on the door tag it will show exactly what the factory tire size is. Write this down. Then look on the rim and sometimes on the lip there will be a size marker showing 17x8. If the tire is a 235/..r17 it is about a 8 inch wide rim. The larger the first number the wider the tire. Then go to tirerack.com and they will fit you with all information on rim size, bolt pattern, backspacing, and the proper tire size for any rim you get.
