wheel size and tire width

studduck01 · Mar 5, 2014

Looking for some advise. I am currently running a set of 39.5 x 13.5 x 17 Irocks on a set of Trail Ready 9" wide beadlocks. I'm wanting to go to a 39.5 x 15.0 x17.0 set of TSL's. Will the 9" wide wheels handle the 15" wide tires?

I ran 44x18.5 TSLs on ten inch beadlocks for years. This for street too or just off-road?

I drive it maybe 2 miles to the carwash, on the trails otherwise

I ran 39x18 boggers on 10" beadlocks no problem

You may have already seen this but for what its worth Interco says 10-12 inch wide. I have attached a link to their chart.

I've seen several rigs with those exact TSLs on hummer H2 wheels, which are 8.5" wide.

It's a good looking and proportional combo.

And that's for street use so I think your rims will work.

Appreciate all the responses. I did know that interco recommends 10-12 inch wheels but I really wanted to hear what the wheelin guys had to say. Thanks guys... fixing to order me some TSL's

I always run mine on 8" so I get the height & the sidewalls are narrower so they don't seem to get cut as much.

Ran 42x15x15 TSL's on 8" wide rims for years without problems.

shitty pic but 39x15x15 on 8" wheels

I'm currently running 44's on H1 wheels, I like them because they stand the tire up a lil more. Nice and perky flashemifyougotem

i have a set of 5- MRW extreme duty 11' wide beadlocks i would trade for your 9'' wide wheels if you don't want to run them. The 11'' wide wheels worked well with 44' tsl's but are a little too wide for my 39'' reds.
