Well, a 235 is a 9.25 inch wide tire, so you could go with a 9 inch wide rim, but I would suggest 8 inches wide. You definately cannot go wider than 9 inches unless you plan on getting new tires with these rims.

I have 16x8 inch rims on my truck with 265 tires, which are about 10.5 inches wide, so an 8 inch wide rim would be fine for most tires that can fit on these trucks.
