It really can't be done on a 10 inch rim. Sorry.

10 inches is 254 millimeters, and your tire is 225 at its tread. Maybe someone on here can swap you a set of stock rims (15X6) that would work.

You could definitely make it work, people have done crazier things.

195-50-15 on a 15x10



I DO NOT condone this, you could suffer serious problems. And I second KenC it will look ridiculous on a truck.... Or a car.... lol

Ive never understood it, I know 'drifters' do it to get the sidewall as stiff as humanly possible, but I still see people doing it on the street. Either their rims are bent to $h!t and back, or they have too much cash to spend on rims.

One of the kids that worked at Goodyear with me was a drifter. He stretched a 195/60r15 on a 15x12 Rota for a friend. it was a pain in the arse. The surveillance cams went down and I didn't do any paperwork on it. Plausible deniability.

A 15x10 is really too wide for a 10.50 tire. and some people say 10" is too wide for a 12.50. it really depends on what you are going for. i love 12.50's on a 10" rim.

Yeah I own a set of 10.50's on a ten inch rim. Bought them this way, would really prefer an 8 or even a 7. Too lazy and cheap to switch them over as of yet lol

I'd love to watch someone mount a 195 on a 12'' rim. Not doubting it could be done, just saying I'd love to see it-must take a ton of psi to pop that bead.
