Help! Tire size - wheel width recommendations.

I was wondering if anyone had a link or something they could post that gave recommended wheel width for a given tire size.

Anyone?

Re: Help! Tire size - wheel width recommendations.

Most tire manufacturer's have that data in their size charts. What size tires are you thinking of? I could go pull some numbers off some sites for ya.

*edit*
Here's the size chart for the BFGoodrich KDW2. It should at least give you an idea.
