Not really, some have put them on but it is not recommended. You should go with atleast a 9'' wide wheel.

I agree. A 325mm (13.00 inch) wide tire is a little too wide for the OEM 7.5 inch wide wheels. The only way I would do it is if I were getting new, wider wheels in the near future.

I agree with Wandell. When you squeeze a tire that wide that far inside of its rim range it stresses the shoulder area of the tire and crowns the treadcap. This overstress causes heat, which will be the demise of the tire. People do it, but just because you can does not mean you should.
