Widest wheel on stock tires?

Why would i do this, you ask? Well i have plenty of tread left on the stock tires and really just don't feel like spending the money on new ones until i have to. I'd like to look at getting something that can fit now, as well as adapt to a bit beefier tire in the future. Obviously, need something practical that isn't sticking out the sides. I have no real reason for anything over a 225 as i'm not putting out any kind of power nor driving under extreme conditions.

Any ideas? Thanks.

Read the tire specs from the manufacturer. I've seen the stock tires on 9 inch width wheels.
