15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

Is anyone running that wheel and tire combo? If so, I'd like to see pics because I'm thinking really hard about running them next year when I swap out rears.

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

That might be an in between size from what most are running. I run a 16x12 wheel and Hoosier Pro Street radials on the street, which ends up being a similar size to the MTs you're asking about. I run a 15x10 wheel with a set of 315/60 - 15 MT drag radials at the track. Here's a photo of my 16x12s with the Hoosiers...

I am running a 15x12 with a 315/60/15 MT DR. essentially the same tire just a 30" tire vs a 28" tire. When I get home on tue I will try to get some pics for you.

I love the look of this tire and wheel combo.

Do you guys have any side shots?

im running 15x6 fronts and 15x14 rears with 31x18.5x15 MT sportsman drag radial

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

Willie,

Doed MT call the sportsman a drag radial? I ask as I 5hink the compounds are different. In other words, I think the dr is actually softer.

Well mine are the 315/60-15 MT ET Street d/r's...mounted on a 15x10 rally wheel with 4.5" b.s. The 1st pick shows 15x8 rallys (4" bs?) with 275/60-15 BFG's.

I need to get some different wheels with a 5.5" to 6" b.s....or even more if they're over 10" wide.

68GMC, That's pretty bad a$$ looking. I've been looking at tires the last several days and, I might just go with a 15x10 and the 325/50 because, I like some sidewall bulge and I don't think I'll have it with the 15x12's. But still a 15x5 w/ a 205/75/15 and a 15x10 w/ a 325/50 will still look good and I should have to mini tub it.

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

Pro Foot, that would be pretty darn cool! I say you try it and we'll see if it takes off! ;)

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

I'm running that combo..... here is a pic.

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

what b.s. are those? and did you make that bed cover?

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

7 1/2 bs......and yes its home made

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

I like the cover, looks clean. I need to get everything tucked up under too...as you have there. These wheels only come in 4.5" or 5" bs....so I may have them modified or just replace the whole set with something else, but I still want my track tires on a separate set of rear wheels that match the main set.

Thanks

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

Once you go 12's you never turn back! lol

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

We are putting that exact combo on my son's street Strip Truck. Here are a few pics.

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

What brand and style wheel are you running? I originally wanted Weld Rodlites but, now I'm thinking about Centerline Convo Pro's instead.

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

Weld Draglites.

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

djracer, where did you find blem M/T's and how much cheaper were they? What is the backspacing on the wheels?

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

Dang Kevin I like the wheels you and JR picked out.
Correct me if I'm wrong. One of the great benifits to a 12" wide wheel is to help square up the tire for a better better contact patch.

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

You are correct. My truck should have had wider wheels when it was together
last time. I had a 33 10.5 w tire on a 10 inch wheel before but now I will have them on a 14 inch wheel.

Thanks for the props on the wheels. I hope to get back on his truck real soon.

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

I bought those tires used at a big drag radial event for less than 100 for the pair. I don't remember exactly.
I don't remember the exact back spacing but its not much. We are building a narrowed 9 inch for the truck.

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

I love the looks of those tires!!

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

Thanks!
They might even be available fairly soon as I'm looking to upgrade to a 17/18 stagger (or similar) wheels.... and am considering letting these go, and buying something wider for the track. Have 2 passes and maybe 70-80mi on them.

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

Well, I went with the 325's and a 15x10. I'm going to be running Convo Pro's too. I got a good deal on M/Ts this past summer. Brand new never used, $340 shipped. Got a set of gently used Convo Pro's for $340 shipped. The down side after measuring this past weekend, I'm going to have to mini tub it anyway. Oh well, I'll just make room for a wider combo if I want them down the road.

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

Looking to run 28x12x15's front and rear on my 67 fleet side with 10" wide wheels. Anyone know off hand if these will stuff in the stock wells without major clearance issues? Stage II Porterbuilt setup.

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

With a 15x10 rim what kind of bs would work on a 67 stepper? Thanks guys

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

5" would work... but to match the bs of the front 15x8's (if at 4")...you'd want 6"

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

Thanks for the reply, this is my first truck an I am excited to see what can be done with it

Anyone have a rear end shot of a fleet side 67-72 with a 325-50-15 on a 10" rim and 5" back spacing?

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

I'll take a rearend shot tonight, although mine are 9.5 wide wheels with 4.5" backspacing. Haven't measured my rearend width though.

Re: 15x12 & 325/50/15 MT's
 

I appreciate it and what size tire do you have on the front?? That looks killer! I have 275/60-15's on the front of my truck and it looks pretty good, but your truck looks amazing with the fronts that wide!
