this is my set up... 245/40/20 the tires are too big, bought off a guy who had them on a buick regal... i put 1" spacers on the rear and rolled the fenders, and they do not rub... the front however, rubs the lower spring perch. I believe they are 8" or 8.5" wide

it is the widest you can go without stretching ( I hate stretched tires, ugly, uneven wear and not safe)

Not to mention tire installers hate doing it, I work at a big O and we wont even touch them.
