Tire widths
I am looking toget new tires and am wondering what is the narrowest width tire I can put on a 16.5 x 12 weld wheel. I have 38.5 x 16 x 16.5 swampers right now and was wondering if I can go to a 13.50 wide IROK Radial. I am sure a 12.50 is out of the question especially eing the 16.5 rims don't have the best bead seat. Thoughts and suggestions?
Thanks

Re: Tire widths
I`d want at least a 14" tire.I wouldn`t put 12.50s on those.
