Re: Another 3/4 ton question

I`ve seen Joes Junk has a 4wd that he mounted 12.50/33s on factory 7" rims.I`m sure tire people will tell you that will cause a high crown in the tread surface.The stock 16s that came after spilt rims are narrower and I wouldn`t do it.The 16.5s jump down from 12.50 to 9.50.The 9.50s would be the recommended size.They dropped 10.50s off the radar.I think Coker has some bias ply for restoration jobs.
