I dont think so, if you could it wouldnt be smart, it would never hold a bead.

I don't see why not. I run 37x12.5x15 on my 15x7 stock aluminum rims. Forget that won't hold a bead idea, rock crawlers often run rims considered to narrow because there is less chance of damaging the rims on rocks, and they hold the bead better at lower pressures.

The sidewalls of the tires will stick out a little further than normal, but it won't cause any problems.

;D Yeah, no problem. I used to run 30x9.5's on stock 15x5.5 VW wheels on a Baja Bug. Never had a problem. Alot of guys run 12.5 tires on stock rims. Like Sean said, there are actually benefits to it. Another is that less rim width=more tire height for a given size. Later...

;D Well, I have the 33x10.5 MT's so I may be a bit biased. They have served me very well. I'd say the #1 advantage is less work to fit them over a 12.5. #2, & since you're in Quebec, I assume you see snow, is that a 10.5 will "cut" thru snow better than a 12.5. ALL else being equal. #3, & this IMHO, I don't care for Toys w/tires out past the fenders(look like a stinkbug) & I really have no use for flares. Later...

I just talked to the guy and he wants 850 $ for 5 tires + he says chrome rims.
I think it's a good deal, but I will need to check if I like the rims first.
