Pedro's Tire Chop' They'll do it.
The local Costco shop said they would mount them on the rims as long as they didn't install them on the truck.
So, what would be the " correct " wheel width for 10.50's

On the way there
7 or 8 inches.
I have the same issue with 33 x 10.5s on stock FJ60 wheels which are 6 inches wide. It works OK but it does crown the tread a bit. For even contact patch I have to run tires in the mid 20s. At stock pressures they look like they will wear the center.
I am hoping that by the time I need new tires again, BFG will see the light and start making 33 x 9.5 again.
This is a crazy old thread so not sure if anyone will respond but are you guys running stock set-ups otherwise?

What do you mean by stock setup? I was able to get Discount Tire to do this for my stock 60 rims (5.5 wide) with 31x10.5x15 however a few months later a club member tried to do the same thing at multiple shops and got the response that since the stock rims do not meet the minimum mfg. width requirements they could not do it. So your results may very.
Stock suspension, stock rims, no lift, uncut fenders. Have you had any issues running that size?

@TigertreeJosh when I first got the tires was before the current lift. Suspension at that point was the old, worn out 60 springs which would hit the bumpstops on harder/taller speed bumps. I only ever rubbed fenders if I was turned to lock and hit a small bump otherwise I never had issues.
