ok so i have a 2001 edge 4x4 automatic gears 4.10 and i wanted to put 33x12.50 duratracs on it with just a t bar crank and then a body lift until august with that said which rim would be better i like when the tire sticks out a little oh and also i will be puttin front 3' front baja fender and my truck is a stepside so help?

 

15x8

 

depends on the backspacing.

 

With a 3.75 bs?

 

id definitely go with a 10" wide wheel then specially if you're going to run those fenders.

 

I was told 15x8 would be better as it will make more tire sit flat on the ground at running PSI. I don't know how true it is. but it makes sense.

 

uh....no

 

Normally I would say 8” but since you are trying to achieve a wider look then maybe the 10”,

I believe that the 8” rim allows a different tire pattern on the ground how much, who know unless you test it out with both rims.
But with a 3.75 or 4” BS, you will not get much outside of an OEM fender let alone the wider Pre-Runner Fenders.

Maybe a wider suspension is in the works somewhere !

 

I think I'm just going to get the 15 x 8 and see how it goes

 

I was told that the 10" wheel would cause the sidewall to bulge, as it does on my F150.

 

This is what i mean.

 

Im running 12.5" wide tires on 8" wide rims and they are just fine, I think they look better than they do on a 10" wide rim too. People will say they wear bad on 8" rims but thats just BS, my MT's are wearing perfectly.

 

i run 12.5 wide on 8.5" wide. no problems. a 8" rim has bulged sidewalls, the 10" has more flat sidewalls on the tire.

 

15x8 15x10 15x10
we were all aired down though

 

lifted thoe right?

 

yeah but a lift has no effect on a wheel. it will look the same width wise since you're going with the same size tire all three of those trucks have, 33x12.5

 

15x10

 

I'm in the same boat. Difrent truck. 2x4 4 in lift. I have 15x8 wheels back ordered, but second thoughts are coming in. Future project is 3in body lift for clearance and 33in tires should I cancel my order and try 15x10 so I don't hafto order them later ("saven money") or will that not even fit my truck right now?

 

i run 33x12.50 bfg a/t with Mickey Thompson classic ll black 15x10 3.31 bs. i like my tires to stick out. when i ran 15x8 even when below 30 psi they wore in the middle like the outside edges were untouched about and inch or so on each side. i wanted my tread to wear evenley too. Although with the 15x8 it seemed to sit a tad higher too.

 

15x10 stance is gonna make her dance!

 

A 12.50 tire calls for 8-10" rim. I think 12.50s look better on am 8".

Also, the wider the rim the further it sticks out and the more body interference you will encounter.

Maybe even a shorter turning radius.

If you are running stock fenders then the 8" rim should look better.
