I'm looking for pics of 285/75/16 Bfg At's on 8" rims, I'm thinking of switching to these and would like to see them mounted before I make my decision . Thanks in advance for any replies.

Sure it does, see right now I have 33/12.50/16 mt's on 16x8 rims, the measured rim width for the tire is 9", so my 33/12.50 is only 12.50 on a 9" rim. Mine being on an 8" rim makes it more like a 33/12, I'm thinking that the 285's with a section width of 11.5 on a 8" rim would be very close (within a 1/2") of what I have now in overall width. See I'm happy with the width I have now so if I can buy the 285's and save a few bucks over the more expensive 33/12.50 ( like 30 bucks per tire ) when I buy my At's and look pretty close to the same I would like to do that. I hope that makes sense.
