They vary, but 8" is the widest factory rim used on 80s
9" wide wheel is too wide for a 285,or 305 tire IMO
If the wheel is too wide, you're more likely to get crud stuck in the bed offroad, or break the bead and cause a leak.
Narrower rim helps the tire protect the bead

I run a 17x9 with a -38
+1 - 9" too wide for those tire sizes.
8" with 4.25 BS and -12 offset gets you flush on flared models. 285/75s btw.

Will going with wider tires help? I'm considering running 305/70R17 on OEM GX470 17x7.5 +25mm offset, not sure what the BS is.
as stated on an 8" rim a -12 puts it right at the edge of the fender. a 0 is just slightly tucked.
These are a 16*8 with a -12
17x9 -12 offset tucks in with a 37x12.50.
-35 offset 17 x 8.5 with lots of trimming on the plastic.
It's the other way for me. The GX470 (2003-2009) OEM Wheel have +25mm offset vs -12mm. Wheels are also narrower 17x7.5 vs 17x9.
My concern is tires be too tucked in, and importantly any possible rubbing on the inner side of the wheel well. Found this thread, but have heard back:
GX470 wheels on a '95 FJZ80
Looking to replace my OEMs as they are all corroded and need to be blasted and powder coated, which I am just too lazy to do... What do you guys think about these GX470 wheels. They appear to fit but was wondering what you guys think. What about the factory wheelcovers? or would the Lexus...

You can only really compare offset on rims that are the same width.
This is a 17*7.5 +25 compared to a 17*9 -12
If the wheels were identical width the difference would be 37mm. But due to width change the total offset difference is 56mm. Over 2"
