11.5" tyres on 10" rims

Post by PJ.zook »

I bought a set of Mudzillas which are 11.5" wide, and they came on 10" wide rims. Are these likely to roll off the rim easy at low pressures while under my zook? Should i bother sourcing some 8" wide rims and swapping them all over?

Your Sierra will be happier on 8's. The weight, leverage and overall width of 10's will be a killer on axle parts. Additionally, you'll be jamming those rims into the ground all over the place with a 11.5 on them.
