Title: quick question about you who know lots about truck tire fitment to wheels Post by: Fox17 on June 08, 2008, 11:09:36 PM will 31x10.50-15 fot a 15x10 wheel or is the wheel too wide. if not, will 33x12.50-15 fit a 15x8 wheel properly?

Now that's a new one!! LOL! Title: Re: quick question about you who know lots about truck tire fitment to wheels Post by: 94Hardbody4x4 on June 09, 2008, 04:55:47 PM The tires will fir either rim. Your main issue is going to be your offset. The stock wheel will not have as much offset as the aftermarket ones and if you put 12.5" wide tire on that rim you will get terrible rubbing. I had 11.5" wide tires on 8" wide rims(aftermarket) on my old truck with 4" offset and they worked great.

Title: Re: quick question about you who know lots about truck tire fitment to wheels Post by: dj_pizzim on June 10, 2008, 10:28:56 PM just remember offset and back spacing are different proper offset is what allows you to but the biggest tire possible. Wheel width is important to ensure the bead doesn't break when off-roading unless you wana get bead locks ;) but their not street legal
