Anyone have 285 tires on a 10.5 inch rim - pics please

[Crowley]

Thinking this may help with IRS bolt issues etc .... how wide would the tire be on this rim vs a 275 on a 9 inch rim?

thanks,
Crowley

Yuk... a 315 Nitto doesn't even look right, which is more like a 295 or 305. A 285-series tire on a 10.5" wheels is going to give you the stretched ricer look and put your wheel lip dangerously close to every curb.

See diagram below...

That's true. The wheel lip sticks out further than the sidewall...which explains why I don't run 285s on 10.5" wheels any more. :-D
