I have a set of 33x12.5x15 tires but the rims I have now are 7" wagon rims. What would happen using a 12.5 tire on a 7" rim?

Tires will bulge out some and they will be hard to balance. Not recommended.

 

irregular wear and more sidewall roll, dont do it

 

Also, (I just have to say it) this question has been asked more or less every week for years... search search search...

 

it'll work on a 7" rim, but an 8" would be optimal.

 

most tire shops will now warranty or mount 33x12.5's on a 7 inch rim

 

I mounted a used set of 33 X 12.50 X 15's on a spare set of wheels that I have - balanced on a machine but shakes my runner at speeds above 45 mph. Never tried new tires - I swap these on and go wheel and then swap back to my 31's for normal driving.

I have not tried the 33's since I installed the all pro steering stabilizer though.

 

Tried that and what I came up with is 33x9.5 or 33x10.5 not 12.5. I have these wheels and tires and I'am going to try it out. If worse comes to worse I will buy new rims, the black AR767's.
