personally I don't like it at all. and I take it none of you have ever had to mount them like that, oh my god what a nightmare... wheel wider than tire= bead wont seat. that is friggin annoying! anyway, I've seen it look ok, but don't get out of hand if you plan on driving it a lot.

haven't you noticed my tires? Very Happy

anyway, i've ran 175s on a 7 in wide wheel before, mounted them myself, as a temporary set while i was saving up for tires. not too bad, decent response, but wider is still better. the only reason i'm running 195s on my 8in now is i can't fit a 205.
