11.5's will look goofy on 10" wide wheels. so i'd say go with the 12.5's

i'd go with 8" wide wheels if you can, then get the 11.5's

32's on a 10" wide rim will look a little goofy. I'd go with the 12.50's or get 8" rims

i got tsl radials on my daily driver. i've seen guys with bfg m/t's drive by me with louder tires than mine. they're pretty decent on the street being a radial, and they're amazing offroad. i can't complain about them at all.

What is the overall opinion on whether to mount black side out or the white lettering out??

I just got some BFG A/T 31X10.50's and am putting them on some American Racing Outlaw II's.....I am racking my brain trying to decide which side to mount out........
