You're looking at putting a tire considered 12.50" wide on a wheel that's 7" wide. It'll work, there are several guys running that size tire on the OEM wheel. That being said, it's not recommended to run a tire that wide on a wheel that small so I'm sure that's why the place you're talking to is telling you that you can't do it. It's not that it can't be done, it's just that they won't do it.

I also had that same problem. I wanted to run a 315/70 BFG A/T on a stock 17.5 rim. After talking to some guys @ an off-road shop, they checked, and it would work.
