Will 33x12.50 fit on stock 15x7 wheels, and if so how would the tread ware down.

15x7 is a bit narrow, but it will work. They'll probably wear more in the middle of the tire than the shoulders. 15x8 would be better.
 






Thanks Alec. Have you ever ran into a place that wouldnt put 33x12.50 on 15x7 wheels?
 






Some won't due to Explorer publicity, but many shops will. You will find one to do it for you.
 












If you run a little less than normal air pressure in the 33's then they will wear better...like 28 psi.
 






I run 33 10.5 's on stock wheels and have them at 25.5 psi and they do wear evenly. just make sure to rotate them on a regular basis..like every oil change or 4k miles .
