haha...okay! if I went with a 8" wheel what size tire would you run with it??

I will have a 2.5" lift and i more then likely wont be doing any hardcore stump jumpin!! I do not want to do any pinch welds either! thanks for the help!

8" wide 15" rims are for 31x10.5 up to around 35x12.5  I have no idea what that is in metric.  My truck has factory dodge rims which I think are 7", and I put 285-75R16 on them.  Surf on over to bfgoodrichtires.com and see what they recommend.  Then use skinnier rims if you are gonna wheel the thing, so you don't lose a bead when aired down.

I'm running 265/75/16 that are 32" on my KJ.  But, I have a 3" lift and pounded over the pinch weld.  I also took out my front fender liners and cut down the front bumper.  New steel front bumper on order so I can mount the winch.
