Hey all, my direct question is for those who have gone from 8" wide wheels to 9" wheels & 12.5 wide tires.... have you noticed any drastic characteristics between the two? Meaning a difference between what air preasure you now run & did you have more problems with loosing beads etc.

I've been wanting to get away from wheels spacers for a long time now & finding it hard to find a steel wheel in an 8" with 3.5" BS. It seems 9" is most common.

Thank you for your time.
