it depends if you plan to use it off road?i found a narrower rim holds the tyre on the bead alot better than a wide rim,on road doesnt matter that much,hope this helps :)

the tyres will look means as on the fat rims but you will blow them off once the pressures come down

had a set of 33x12.5 on tens and they did look awsome but with 18/20 pd all it took was a little knock from a edge of a rut and flats become a big issue, more with the front tyres than the rear

I'm running the same size on my Safari. I was advised to run them on 8" rims but the recommended rim width is 8-10" so either works.

All tires sit nicer on wider rims and look better but risk rolling beads a lower pressures easier than narrower rims.

Tires on narrower rims will pull in and sit slightly taller and look like they bulge in slightly more and are more stable at lower pressures.

Its up to you. I'm probably biased to my 8" rims so.. Just make sure your rims are the right offset to fit your truck. Japanese solid front axles require -20(8") or -40(10") minimum to clear the front break calipers.

ive heard of some stockcar guys getting the edges of their rims knurled so the rim bites into the tyre and they hold the bead much better.mates them abit of a prick to get off again.

Yeah they always look cool on 10" rims 8) .... they look even cooler when you can keep the beads on and the air in them :D :lol:
