Need some tire help

Postby oldestof11 » Mon Apr 23, 2012 5:32 pm

I have 33x12.5x16.5 tires right now. Will a 8x16.5 fit the rim? I wanna say it is a 9" or 10" wide rim. I assume not but then again, I am assuming.

Your wheels are more then likely 16.5x9.75. Thats a skinny tire for that wheel.

Hey Jon! Need some new rubber? I just snatched up a set of 305/70 16's on some aluminums I'd be willing to part with pretty cheap. That's about the same size as what you're running now...
