Riddle me this... (Wheel Question)

I have an 89 Camry Wagon that I often use to go out to the farm I own. I am interested in getting some wheels that could fit a nice all terrain style tire, possibly a light truck tire.

Are there any wheels for other vehicles that fit the lug pattern on my camry that would also allow me to fit this sort of tire without lifting or altering my vehicle?

I have heard something about 15 inch wheels from a jeep cherokee, but I have never seen proof of this. I don't have a ton of money to spend on wheels as this isn't a show car so even some old steel wheels are fine.

Keep in mind im a cheapass.

Best bet would be a set of 14" steelies. There isn't much room for a decent A/T tire with 15" wheel. On my Camry it's a 195/60/15.
With a 14" tire, you could go taller and there are several inexpensive light truck tires available.

I'm figuring you want a little more ground clearance.

I've looked around for a bit taller tire for a 14" wheel and haven't found any. Evidently there wasn't a market for them or something as I remember there being some in the past. The yokohama geolander 2 is something I've looked into, but the smallest made for it is a 15" wheel. Was just wondering what would fit.
