any dramas with this size rim for 31s x 10.5 or 32x9.5 tyres?
apparently has the -28 offset and am looking for a little increase in track width.
cheers

I have -28 15x8 wheels on mine running 32x10.5 mongrels, but i havent been game to drop the pressures lower than 12psi. I agree that you probably shouldnt run a tyre any thinner than 10.5 on an 8" wide rim

Why haven't you been game to drop them lower? what is the issue with the wider rim and lower pressure? does the bead break easier?
cheers

Mine are 15" x 8" rims running 32 x 10.50 Mongrels.
They are only just the right size.
Any narrower and the tyres would be subject to sidewall damage, because of the angle of sidewalls.
I believe 7" rims or less for 9 or 9:50 tyres.
The lower the pressure, the more risk of pushing them off.
I found 10psi to be a good compromise for mine.
(tho cos of faulty stauns I was only at 4- 6 on the recent toolang trip)
I also run heavy duty simex tubes in 2 of mine

yeah i thought that may be the case...have sourced some 15x8s in good nick and i think its time to go bigger and get some more flex, while i'm at it with some shackles and a basic no extenssion RUF...
Was good to see your beast in action chris, truly one of the best setup zooks i've seen on a budget and the only reason the cruisers got through that bog hole was because they watched your line first!
