GU has a bigger wheel arch than a GQ - should be able to fit if you're not going offroad in it.

I ran 35" Claws on the standard steel rims on my GU coil cab for a couple of days while the lift went in with no real rubbing issues on-road

better just go 16s.

i had the problem with my GQ on 15s, i had to rip the backing plate off, because of a little accident with a failing jack Crying or Very sad

i got my JTs on 15s and bought them off some guy who just bought a GU and he didnt like the room between the rim becasue of stuff getting caught in there, so he sold em to me Very Happy
