12.50 on 8 in wide rims
I want to go 8 inch wide on 16 inch rim but I think 12.50 will balloon out and look dumb. If you got 12.50 on a 8inch can you post it up. Thanks

Go to the link below....post #1016.
Those are 35x12.50 tires on 7.5" wide wheels (stock Rubicon wheels 17x7.5). I think it looks fine. It doesn't really baloon out like you are thinking.

Mine are 16x8 Pro Comps, running 315/75R16 tires, 35 x 12.5.... I might get different/wider wheels if I run 37s in the future, especially if they are 37x13.5...
Its actually not that uncommon, pretty typical to run an 8" wheel with 12.5s, but once you get wider, its easier to pop a bead. No ballooning here
