Hello,

Just wondering what would be the minimum and maximum width rim you would want to run with a 33/12.5/16 or 17 in tire. I am looking at buying a second set of wheels for pulling tires only.

Thanks

Jon

If you're just pulling with them, you'd want as much contact as possible. I'd say 8-10 wheels for a 12.5" wide tire. Most manufactures recommend about an 8" minimum width wheel. Chris
