rim question

Will 32 x 12.50 tires fit on an 8" rim? Or should I get a 10" rim?



TIA!


Check with the tire manufacture to be positive, but you should be ok. Do you have your tires picked out yet?

yes that tire will fit on an 8" rim

The tire will fit either rim. If you intend to air down off road for traction and flotation, the 8" will have less chance of breaking a bead. Plus, the narrower rim is better protected from rocks by the bulging side walls. The 10" rim will give a wider, flatter footprint that will give more even tread wear at a higher street pressure for better handling. In the opinion of many, a 12.50 tire 'looks better' on a 10" rim.

But if I were you I would run that size on a 8" rim before I ran them on a

10" rim
