 Subject: biggest tire for 15x7 inch rim
IP: Logged
Message:
I have currently put a 3 inch body lift on my 93 Dakota and am looking to purchase bigger tires. I was thinking somewhere around 33" give or take. The problem though, is that the only tires l've found to fit the stock 15x7 rims are bf goodrich's 33x10.5 all-terrain + mud terrain tires. I was wonder if it's possiable to fit a wider than 10.5" tire on a 7" wide rim. I'm looking for good off-road traction and treadwear. Any advice would be appericated.

You can fit it but since the tire is so wide what is going to happen is the narrow rim is gonna suck in the sidewall and bulge the center of the tire out. You can fit it but the tire will wear out in the center faster and the sidewall will look funky. You can move up to a 8 inch wide rim or stay with a 10.5 inch wide tire.
12.5s are a little too wide for a 7 inch rim.
lots of guys here are selling 15x8 rims.
