Rims? - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

I am gettin ready to buy 35\16 boggers ,but havent decided which rim width to buy. 15x10 or 15x12? What do you guys think? Besides widening my stance a little what would be the other benefits of going 15x12? Do I need to go that wide?

stick with the 10" rim...it will help keep the tire on the rim when you air down!

thats kinda what I thought, but then I read some where that those tires were gonna require 15x12. I just thought I better ask, thanks.
