In the past I've had 265/70x16" on stock wheels, no lift, very little trimming of the front cladding.

I currently have 285/75x16" mounted on my stock wheels, that fit with a lift & some trimming.
I use them as my winter tires & loan them to my wheelin' buddy Jim for Moab every year.
285's may be a little wide for a 7" wheel, but if properly inflated, they seem to wear OK.
