    Im wanting to run 7.50 16s on my project but i need to know the actual dimensions of the tires. I looked on Cokers site but the tires i get from there are never the sizes they claim them to be. Need height and over all width. I tried a search but couldnt find this and i know plenty of you guys are running them. Thanks David

    7.50X16 Deluxe Champions are 31" high and 8" wide on 5" wide wheels. So the width will vary depending your rear wheel width... Hope that helps.

    There will be some variance from brand-to-brand, as well. Best to plan for that too. It wont be a ton, but I have seen 1/4" to 3/8".

    How much wider is a sedan than a coupe? B*** runs a bronco rear and its only 58 inches! And he has tons of body clearence.
