I have seen guys stretch the 1.9 tires over 2.2 rims before so it can be done. Typically it is with a good flexible-pliable tire though as the cheaper tires aren't made of a compound that likes to stretch that much.

Rccrawler.com will give you a ton of info for scale rigs. Scale tires can be found all over eBay as well.

Direct fit? They don't make a lexan fj. There are new bright hard bodies on eBay that could work but I would imagine you would also have to change the wheelbase so the tires lined up with the fj wheel wells.
