can i run 39.5x18x15 boggers on a 15x10 rim. i know 15x12 is suggested, but would i be popping off the bead or what? thanks
 
The tire is tall enough it should fit on there with a little squeezin. It would be hard to pop it off the bead.
 
IMO its ok, and i think they look real good on 12s. 10s might crown out a bit but theyre not known for the wear properties. i doubt youll lose a bead unless you really hit it good.

i run mine on 16.5x 9.75 with a weld on beadlock.
 
Narrower rims actually make it harder to pop off the bead versus wider rims. Also, the taller the tire is narrower the rim can be. Myself and a few others in our club have ran 15.5" wide TSL's in 35", 39.5", and 42" heights all on 8" wide wheels with good success (though all the rigs were primarily off-road rides, but all were licensed and saw some pavement). I would have no issues running that size Bogger on a 10" rims, and for general trailriding use that is the size I would recommend.
 
18 39,5 15 Boggers on 15x8 rims worked great so 10" would not be a problem
