are 15x12 ok for everyday driving?
I like the look of the wide tires :D
I am going with a 4" lift.

I wanted 33x12.5 on 15x10's, but I was going through JEGS, and in their
spring and lift section, they have a red dodge with tall WIDE tires, thats
the look I really want for my truck.
 
They are very hard on wheel bearings, but so are the 10's. Personally, I run my 33/12.50's on 8" rims.

i have 12 on my avater pic. i can send full size pic to you if needed.


DUDE PLEASE, I want to see more pic's of your truck.
that stance is what I want. But I know you have more than
a 4" lift. But the wheels i want as mean looking as I can get.
but street stable.
 
i think even a 10 inch rim is to wide for a 12.50 tire, i had a set of 35/12.50/15 all terrains on 10 inch rims and they seemed a little wide :dunno:
 
give me your email address and did you click on my name and go to my profile and see the specs? its all there.
 
12" rims are fine, no problem on the street. I have ran 14" rims for a long time now without any issues. I LOVE the wide tire look myself, thats why I run 16.5x14 Welds on 35x16 boggers. Plus with wide rims I don't have to air down because I already have a flat foot print.

It sounds like a 15x12 on a 33x14.50 tire would be a good combo for you.
 
I'd say a 15x10 wheel on a 33x12.50 tire... or a 15x12 on a tire wider like a 14.50, or a 16in wide... But I think if your gonna get wider than 12.50, you should go taller than a 33. Just my opinion.

Sorry, those are 31's, I haven't gotten any pics with the new tires and lift yet.
