Default RE: Tire size

I wouldnt run that wide of a tire on a 7 inch rim, It would bulge and look terrible if u can even get it on.They are also a 28 inch tire ,do you have the power or gearing for that height ? I run MT drag radials 255/50/r16 on stock 7 inch wide alloy ponies and like them. The size chart for the BFG'S says the rim width range is 7.5-9.5 so its really your choice, good luck .
