Wiil my tyres fit my wheels?

Post by lazy rambler » Tue Oct 09, 2012 11:11 pm

I've just been offered some 9.5 wide wheels to put my new tyres (10.5 wide). Sound like they'll fit but as my current wheels are 8 wide I just want to make sure.

I personally wouldn't run 10.5" tyres on a 9.5" rim I like the tyre to be a minimum of 2" wider than the rim it's fitted on when it comes to an offroader to help keep it on the bead at lower pressures :thumbup:

Thanks for the info, I was thinking along those lines anyway.
