If you look at Discount Tire or other sites, they will list the acceptable rim width for the tire sizes you're looking at. The bigger question is how much bigger can you go without rubbing? I don't know the answer to that. In the past with my trucks, I would have the tire dealer do a test fit and if it was too big, then switch to something smaller. Most tire shops have a pretty good feel for what will fit.
Can I get different tire size for original Rim

I'm running Michelin CC2s in 235/65R18 on my 2022 Onyx. I switched from the OEM 20s. I prefer a taller sidewall than the standard 18" tires. The diameter is about .5" larger so I went with a full size spare in the same size. The speedo/odo is slightly off, but not to the extent that it is a concern.
BTW, I bought from Discount Tire and got a good deal (price matched Costco) and great service at their local store.

Where are you keeping your full size spare?I'm running Michelin CC2s in 235/65R18 on my 2022 Onyx. I switched from the OEM 20s. I prefer a taller sidewall than the standard 18" tires.

The spare is in the normal location. Robert M has cautioned about "bottoming out" (he did), but so far, in 14 months and 11K miles, it hasn't happened. You do lose some departure angle, but the "Y" pipe is actually lower than the spare so no loss of overall ground clearance. If I did a lot of what Robert does (offroading), I would install a roof rack and keep it there.
