no sorry a 33x12.5 can be run a 15x8 prefectally safe and wears fine... if you dont think so go look at over half the members here alone that run it....i still to this day sont understand why people think a 12.5 wide tire cant fit on a 8" wide run and be fine....

Maybe with a street truck, but the 8 inch width is more desireable for real offroading.

well you could easily fit a 12.50 on an 8" rim because somebody on here just put 33 12.50's on a 15x7 rim! Looks sweet too

alot of people put a 12.5 wide tire on a 7" rim and i think your thinking of bill(04lvl2). the only thing on a 7" wide rim the tire doesnt make full contact at running PSI of the tire and it will wear unevenly and isnt completely recommened for a long period of time
