Tire size question

OK I got your attention. Will a 7.50/16 work on a 4" - 4.5" wide rim???? or a 5.50/16? If not what will? I have a set of rims that I want to use But I am uncertain if the will bulge to much!

 

I put 7.50 16's on the back of my dodge. These are on a 16x7 rim.

 

hmmm They bulge a LIL' I wonder how bad on a 4.5" hmmmm

 

I once had a set of 195/70/15s on an 8" wide rim before. They looked funny as hell, but they worked, held air, and went down the road smooth enough. It was only used for a short time, but hey, they did the trick. Best thing I could say would be to try it and see if'n you like it.

 

UHHHH WTF??? Those aren't the kind of tires I am talkin' bout man.

 

yes you can

 

Just went through this...........you will get some bulge regardsless, the sidewall is designed like that and real soft, check my thread and yes they are too wide and Im going down and inch on both rims.......
