Default Alloy wheel and tyre dimensions

What governs the size tyre you can fit on alloy wheels?
As looking for tyres they vary from 205-265 (on ones I'm looking for)
For example my last tyres where 225-40-17
I'm looking for 18" now but what's the max you can fit on the average size wheels or is there no average?
Cheers.........

The width of the rim dictates the widest tyre you can put on. If you go to Toyo uk website it gives you rim widths and max tyre widths.
