Be carefull here. You cant just up the width as it will also up the wheel height. Remember the "65" or "75" is an aspect of the height. So going wider and leaving all the other figures the same will give you higher sidewalls as well, which will give hassles with clearance and autobox lock-up points.
This is a website that I always use to compare tyres, or tires as they say in USA.

That's size will fit without a suspension upgrade, John G has them on and they look great. Gives you about 13mm lift as well
