That's a pretty narrow rim width for that tire. For comparison I run that same tire on a 18x13. Just food for thought.

It's going to roll the outside over just a tad and you will not have full contact unless you let a lot of air out of it. That big of a tire on that small of a rim is actually just carrying extra weight for no benefit as the footprint of the tire will not be hardly any wider than a 315 section width tire on a 10" rim.

That tires calls for a min of 11 inch rim. I also run that tire on a 13 inch rim. If me would put that tire on anything under 11 to 12 inch rim. Robert
