I run 8 inch wide rims on my 12.5 inch wide tires. For street use, the rim width would need to more closely match the tire width. For mudders, I like narrow rims.

This is my daily driver and the tires rub on sharp turns. You need at least 3.75 of back space if you don't want this to happen. Like I said this is ny daily drive I don't off road with this one.

You might be able to go just a little wider, but no reputable tire shop would mount them due of liability issues. You should also consider the laws that require fenders cover the tire, if you go wider you may need to make other modifications.
