Re: 33.12 whats the correct rim with 8 or 10

I better clarify this first,on the front axle you will need to grind the caliper & backing plate to clear the rim.If your rear is a full floater,they will bolt right up without any issues.A 14 bolt semi float will need the fins on the drum ground down a bit.It's not the ideal set up,but I got a real good deal on these 15x10 rims so I made it work.My 86 had the 15x10 8 bolts on it when I bought it.Sorry for any confusion before eh!!
