yep and I pointed you to a whole heap of answers. Not sure what the problem with that was. How was i to know that you don't like those answers even tho they tell you what rim size you need to run a 12.5" wide tyre on.

No wonder the forum is dying when people are too lazy to even have a quick search before asking a very common style of question that would of been asked and answered before. Lazy. Grimbo gave you threads to look at and you still whinged. What, do you want him to buy the rims and mount the tyres for you too.

then why not go into more detail in your initial post and explain what these still mysterious different things are that effect how a 12.50 tyre would behave differently on different size rims. The more detailed question you give the more relevant the answer you will receive. People aren't mind readers

Not to mention (well Grimbo already did) that there were two threads about the same thing on the first page of the forum when the question was asked :roll:

why do you think the Maxxis 12.50 would be any different to any other 12.50 wide tyre? I'm just curious to the answer as it is a tyre I'm interested in looking at next year
