Yup. They won't fit perfectly, but they'll fit.

A rough, general rule-of-thumb is rim width should be about the same as tread width. That size on those narrow rims will probably result in wearing out the center of the tread. http://www.tirerack.com/ and other sites will usually show the recommended rim width (and the allowable range) for any size tire they sell.

Here's an example: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/Spec.jsp?make=BFGoodrich&model=All-Terrain+T%2FA+KO&vehicleSearch=false&fromCompare1=yes&partnum=105R5ATAKORWL&tirePageLocQty=%26partnum%3D105R5ATAKORWL
7"-9" range...... measured on 8.5"
