Just wanting to find out if any of you are running 12.5 inch tyres on 7 inch rims.
About to go from 31x 10.5 mt/rs to 33s but i only got my rims a few months ago and dont want to have to buy new rims as well.
There was a couple of articles in the last few 4WD Monthlys and in the stats of the vehicles guys were running 12.5s on 7 inch rims.
Spoke to my tyre dealer mate and he said i could do it but they might bag a little.
What do you guys reckon?
Just dont want to buy the new tyres and have them blow out or fcuk up on me.
I reckon for $60 a pop you should get some 8in wagon wheels, i think you won't have any troubles that way. also it should make the footprint wider with extra stability.
as grimbo said though.. there is info on this around here.
5 on 5.5" ROH 15x8's for a F100 (same pcd as a Jeep/Sportage/Zook) should only be in the range of $80 each (made of thicker material than usual). The 15X7 has a bacspace of 104 mm (edge of rim to WMS), 15X8 I would imagine the same or a bit more.
