33x12.50 15 on stock 60 rims?

[goodol84]

I know a 10.50 wide tire would be best suited for a stock 60 rim. But I am on a super budget lately and in the market for some used tires. I have already looked for months for some used 33x10.50 15's and have not had any luck. 12.50's are EVERYWHERE and can't afford aftermarket wheels right now. I have heard you guys runnin 12.50's on stockers but was not highly recommended. Opinions and pictures are welcome. I am torn but also want to go with a size that is more common. Please help!

Yes they'll fit, but probably not a good idea if they are going to see much road use. The wear pattern will be off for sure, not sure if they will be unsafe as a result.

Done it.

Never put enough miles on a Cruiser to wear out a set of tires, but it drove fine.

Its my daily driver right now but only about 14 miles round trip 5 days a week. Dont drive it much on the weekends right now.

I have them on my DD with no issues at, no wear problems. Go for it!

I dont have a problem,but tire pressure is 48-50 # may not be the ride you want.Mike

Front Range 4x4, I thought you had the 35 muds rollin??

I had to go back to 33's due to clearance issues, man did they rub. I'm planning on addressing that with some trimming and getting back to 35's this season.

 

[goodol84]

I forget, do you have a shackle reversal??? I would like to be SUA with 35's! Eventually.

I will Wednesday night, just got dirtgypsy's cutoff as he goes SOA.

The next mod will be wheel well trimming.

FWIW, I could not find a tire shop in my area that would put 33-1250's on the stock rims. Too wide, they said, and they would not put themselves out there in liability land.

Crazy! I've used a number of tire shops w/o anyone having any issue. I ran 33x12.5 on stock wheels for years on the road and on the rocks and never had any problem in any way. They wear fine, ride fine, etc - hell, I wish my BFG A/T's would wear out so I could buy 35's.

mounted a 33x13.5 Swamper on a stocker 2 days ago for a spare, tire shop had no prob (go to a small one) looks fine.

I use a little local shop down the street that will do it. Discount tire would probably not. They would rather sell me 10.50's with a road hazard warranty for 1000 duckets. I feel like im being too cheap but oh well.

13.50?? holy crap!
