Most of the manufacturers recommend a 7.5" wide wheel for a 225/40. think if you go to a 225/45 or a 225/50 you might find some that are recommended for a wheel width of 7"(minimum). here is a tip, when you look on tire rack, look at the rim width range column under specs for that tire. if your rim width is not at least the minimum or maximum, i would not have them put on your wheel. remember that if you go to a wider section width than is recommended, for a particular rim width, the tire will cup and the sidewall will not be as strong.
