Yup, I ran them for awhile. You will have a bit of rubbing at full steering lock but otherwise you will be just fine.

I ran 31x10.5, 31x11.5, 33x12.5's all on stock 15x7 wheels. personally loved the 12.5's on there because they are "fat" looking but most say 11.5 is the limit.

11.5 if you plan to air down on trails.

related, kinda, i ran 275's on my stock mustang rims(15x7). as far as width goes, for safety i wouldn.t run anything more the 11.50 wide. cause the tires baloons out and doesn't give the beed as good of a seal, so goin down the freeway i wouldn't suggest it
