    is 12.5inch tyres too wide?

    hay all,

    Are 12.5 too wide? I was thinking of going 33 by 12.5 on a 10inch rim with a neg 35 offset. THoughts? All ny mates run 35 by 11.5 but I cant be bothered changing diff ratios. I run a 4.6 so power isnt a pron. I'm concerned breaking CV joints etc.

    cheers nat

    As a Road Roller, you'd be driving pretty slow, so I can't see CVs as a problem area...

    i ran some 35x12.5's on the weekend on -25 rims. only slight scrubbing on the radius arms at full lock, nothing adjusting the steering stops wont fix!

    as for breaking stuff, all depends on how you drive!
