Default Fitting a 35 inch tire on my wheels

I'm currently running a set of Nitto 33's on Black Rock 909 wheels. The 909's are 17x8 in. I'm looking at moving up to 35x12.5 Toyo Open Country RTs on the same rims. The Toyo specs https://www.toyotires.com/tire/patte...-terrain-tires say the recommended rim width is 8.5-11 in. Should I be concerned that I only have 8 in width rims?

Thanks!

I ran those same tires on my stock rims and had no issues. Only aired down to 12psi on trails never went lower. Now I'm at 9 inch rim

It will work just fine. Keep proper care of your tires like any other and all will be well!

Thanks everyone! it would have sucked to buy the tires and find out late that there was an issue.
