I think you're really fucking lost, lol.



I'd just go with 15x10 rims if you already have the tires. That seems like a confident match up.

i know people with 39.5x18.50 boggers on 20 wides on there mud bogging trucks. they are putting down some good power and going threw some really bad shit and havent had a problem.

of course you are going to hear people that have had problems i know people that blow tires on 10 wides but if you plan on dd this truck and just ocasionally take it off road i would say you will be fine. plus the look that you will get is going to be good.

what tires are they. if they are a swamper or a mickey then they will run closer to a 12.50. if they are a bfg, pj, dunlop, or any of those they will run alittle narrow. but you should still be ok. impo

for a 12.5 wide tire most people run 8 in wide rims, and some like me 10 in, i would never ever think of using a 12in
