30" tires will fit on a stock rim. The limiting factor on fitting a tire on a rim is the width. The rule of thumb is no more than 4" difference (example: 7" wide rim allows 11" wide tire max) I do not know what kind of link you are wanting. To a tire that will fit? I don't know what kind of tire you want (street, all-terrain,mud-terrain).

EDIT: Also please try to proof-read and clean up you posts. Double space after sentences, complete words, etc. It makes a world of difference when trying to decifer it. Thank you.

A good place to look online is tirerack.com. Then you can pick out your own tire. If you have 14" rims it will be tough to find an AT to fit it I think. The way to see what size rim you have is on your tire. The tire will have numbers on it (ex. 225/65/14) the last number (14) says how big the rim is in inches. Find that out, then talk to your local tire shops and tell them what you are looking for. Also look at tirerack.com. If you're just looking for cheap, then you don't really need help (advice, etc.) just time to browse the web. And its obvious you can use the web as you found this site. Let us know what tires you're lookin at.

That sounds about like stock size, so definitley yes. Though I would opt for 31"s. What size do you have now?
