12.5 tires on 12in wide rims

[Logan2500]

Hey does anyone run 12.5 width tires on 12 in wide rims and if u do I'd like to see some pics. Thanks

Probably won't find many examples. A 12.5 tire works best on a 8 to 10 inch wide wheel.

Yeah a wheel that wide would be hard to keep a 12.5 tire seated on the bead.

Wouldnt a 12" be better for like 19" wide tires?

15.5 would probably be the narrowest to run on a 12 inch wheel. Even then, it's not needed unless you just like the wider look. I ran a 15.5 tire on a stock 8 inch wheel.

God damn, that tire must have been balooned out pretty damn good.

Not really, it just made the tire look a lot skinnier than it was. A guy I know in VA has a set of the same size tires but on a 12 inch wide rim... gee **** it really makes those tires look wide.

I had 33's on a 12 inch wide wheels on my 72 blazer a long time ago and it looked great , but you had to be carefull off road , catching the lip of the wheel on rocks. Now on the blazer I am building as we speak I have 40 inch gumbo monster mudders on 15x14 wide wheels and it looks bad ass. (I love wide wheels). I will try and find some pic's of the 72 , but here is some of my new set up.
