Maybe to wide? Sorry put in wrong section...Garage

[bpgardn]

I wanted to have my wheels stick out from under the wells a little more with out using spacers. So I bought these 15x12in wide rims. Now I'm wondering if they are to wide. I have 33x12.50x15in tires mounted on 15x10in rims. Will these tires look stupid on the new rims.
I don't want to spend the $$$ to mount them if not.

for the record, this is the for sale section... and i'm doubting you'd get those to even set a bead.... different backspacing on those 10's is what you wanted...

I will take a pic of my rim tire combo, pretty sure my rims are 12 wide on 12.5 wide tires

So whats the purpose of this thread?

Are you just asking what hits and fits?

Are you trying to sell the 12" rims?

If you're trying to sell, and now that this thread is in the Sale Forum, how much are you looking at for them?

Thanks Eric-

And yes they will be for sale if I can't use them.

You can mount them, and they will look big, but it's not good for the tire.
You are supposed to have a rim a couple of inches narrower than the tire to function properly.
Too narrow or too wide is not recommended.
Now I run a little narrower for off road because it helps keep the bead seated and in slow crawling it doesn't hurt the tire, but highway speeds it will.
If you run a very wide rim you will wear the edges of the tire too fast.
Too narrow and you will wear the middle too fast.

12.50's on a 10" wide is fine.
