Who's running H1 rims and what tires are you using? I'm having a hard time finding any tires I like in 16.5. TIA.
 
44 inch tsls :)

lets see it :deal:

No idea how much air I put in it, just enough to make it stable basically. It has one hell of a crown, but that's what you get when you stuff a tire made for 12-14" wide rim on an 8-9" rim. I wouldn't street it, but I wouldn't street 49's in the first place anyways. Just an FYI, neither of the two tires in the first pic are on rims.

Anyone running 42+ tires on H1's having to modify the width of the mag runflat? I've read that some of the tires have really fat beads that require trimming the sides of the mag to fit. Any truth..?

I trimmed my mag for my Iroks. I had 39.5 TSL's that had no issues, but when I got my 39.5 Iroks, the bead had a different shape and I couldn't get the rim together.

I'm pretty sure trimming is mostly an Irok thing, although I *think* I remember reading that 47" LTB's require trimming too. I didn't put an insert in the 49 I mounted. I was just doing it to check it out and I'm making my own inserts anyways, so I don't know what they require in terms of insert width.
 
you have to modify mags to work with the 42" iroks, but im not running mags for now. i plan to run some kind of aftermarket pvc insert (possibly 6x6:doah:) when funds allow. it may have something to do with the fact that im running the 12b h1's not 8bolts, i duno if cutting them is necessary for 8bolts.
