Wheels and Tyres Question Again

(1/2) > >>

ben_haynes:
Will 235/70r16 tyres fit an 8J rim???

i did not think they would as the rim looks to wide!!

hrox:
suppose you could try internal bead lockers see if that helps push the tyre wall out to the edge of the rim but i still doubt it.  why do you want the rims that wide anyways?

lambert:
Yep but you run the risk of hitting your wheels as the tyres don't stick out that far a bit like a normal car.

Probably not. Looking at the spec sheet for BFG MT a 235/70 of theirs is not reccomended to be fitted to such a wide rim.

I don't know what tyres you are planning to use, and it is possible that the construction of a different tyre would allow it to be fitted to an 8" rim, but you would need to consult the manufacturers spec sheet to find out.

ben_haynes:
I dont want them on wide rims it is just i have them already.
My dads P38 has 8j rims on and i have a set of 235 MT's to fit them otherwise i will have to sell the tyres and go bigger  8)  :lol:
