I just put 33x12.5 on some 10" rims; the rims have a 3.5 offset so they stick out about 2.5 inches out from the body. Anyone know what the DOT regs for tires sticking out are? I live in Alberta but I'm sure that the regs are universal. If I need flare any advice on where to get cheep ones or fab them myself?

Thanks.

 

Not sure in your area, but from the on-line Calif. DMV site, they list tread covered by the fender flare as well as the tire covered down at least to the center line by a mud flap in back. I used to run 33x15.50 Swampers on 15x10-2.5"b/s rims and ran 4" Bushwacker flares:

 

I also have 33x12.50 tires on and mine stick out a couple inches. no issues as of yet in the southern states, don't know about northern or canada. my flap in back only covers about 2/3 of the tire horizontally and not even 1/2 of the tire vertically

 

in nj your tire isnt supposed to stick out past the flare/body...but their kinda lenient. as for mudflaps, i dont have any, but i dont know if you need them here

 

From what I've seen in Alberta they don't seem to have any regs Here in BC no part of the tread can stick out past the fenders.
