damnit moguy... havent you figured it out already? the most common is an 8" rim.... you can run anywhere from a 7" wide rim all the way up to a 14" wide rim! most people will run 8" or 10" rims with a 12.5" wide tire...

THEY ARENT GOING TO EXPLODE UNLESS YOU ARE RUNNING THEM AT SOME UNGODLY PRESSURE EITHER +/- WHAT THEY SHOULD BE AT...... OR UNLESS THERE IS SOME DAMAGE DONE TO THE TIRE FROM WHEELING/ROAD HAZARDS

BTW, I'm runnin a 15x8...maybe a mod could change the options and add 15x10 cause I know that's a popular one too.

I've been running 33"x12.5"x15" tires on my Stock 15"x7" Rims.
I don't have any problems.
If I ever have a stock one damaged I'll order some new rims (Xtreme Alloy 1879 Bead Lock Style).
Until then I can't complain. I air down to 13-15 psi to play in the sand.
and with the CAP THING its difficult to read & seems as if your YELLING.
I just choose to skip the reply and read the next. I may miss some good information but that is my choice.
