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

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.

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
 

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

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

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

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.

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.
