I didn't say I did not believe you I have no trust in the DPI, simple as that. If we where to believe DPI then you would have no problems getting your 35" on 8" rims legal, right So now they change their mind and you have to get 10" rims. This is the kind of BS that I am trying to avoid.
This is the reason I asked the question in the first place I want to get a copy so I can satisfy myself.
According to the association the recomended sizes mean nothing. You have to go by the tyre & Rim association manual. If I want to get my 4x4 legal then this is waht I have to do.

I think you can have 255 85 16s on 6.5-8 inch rim.
they are slightly taller than a 33 but not quite a 10.5 wide.
bfg makes these too.
I found that the tyre and rim manual changed between the 2002 and the 2004 editions. apparently in 2002 you couldnt fit 235 85 16s to a 5.5inch split rim but you can according to the 2004 book.
