Wheelin' with stock rims bad?

[GenLee01]

Hey guys/girls. I am getting new tires, pretty sure i am going with Interco (makers of Super Swampers) TrXus M/Ts and was wondering if wheeling with the stock 94 rim is a bad thing? should i get a new set of rims as well? I want to be safe out on the trail let me know what you think.

A wheel is a wheel. Only problems with stock rims is running wide tires on a 15x7 rim but if you have a 10.50 or 11.50 you'll be fine

so staying with the stock with 31x10.5 i am good no need to worry about new rims? I have 31's now on the stock rim and they are shot that is why i need new tires. they spin at 2500rpms. they suck.

There is nothing wrong with wheeling on stock rims. I do it all the time. Unless you're going to a 12.5"+ wide tire or really want a new look, don't waste your money.

If your not doing hard wheeling you are fine. Hell I have a 12.50 tire on my stock 15x7 and have never lost a bead. But I dont rockcrawl either.
