whats the narrowest rim anyone has run with this tire? 37-13-16 bogger. I am thinking of running a powerstroke alcoa on my yj and having the beadlocks installed by champion. It would make it an 8in rim. I like the offset and they are very light.

FYI - I ran my 16" wide 35" boggers on some 9.75" wide aluminum rims and loved it. Go for it :cool2:

thanks Dave, actually the idea came from you in the first place. Back when we were all talkin about the stock chevy 16.5s and how some have a safety bead, well I like nice looking rims instead of stock steelies, so I got some powerstroke alcoas for free. great offset at 4.5 backspace and only 7in wide. with this narrow I shouldnt even need a beadlock on 16s. I was planning on 38.5 14.5 sxs but dont need the height, so I figure go with the new bogger. I havent had a bogger yet this should be fun

What year are these rims?

OK thats what I was wondering about but I see you have that under control

I am running the 37x13/15 on a 10 inch wheel and have been very pleased with them. They would work just as well on an 8 inch however they would look a lot skinnier and you would probably wear the centers out much more quickly.

I'm running 38x13r16 TSLs on 8" rims. THey've worked great so far. They'll really wrap around stuff and I've yet to lose a bead
