I run 15x8 rims and run either an 11.5 or 12.5, depending if I can get 33's or 32's.

But I like the bubbled out look for my sidewall.

Alot of fellas I 4-wheel with run an 8" wide rim with large tires. It helps to keep tire on at low pressure.

I dont understand it, iv got a higher lift than you do but you flex way easier than i do. Do you think the cold weather has anything to do with it, possibly the shocks and bushing's are flexing as easily as it would in warmer weather?

Here is mine with 33x12.5x15s on beadlocks... They cleared the calipers but took my mileage down from 18mpg on the interstate to 13.5 so they had to go. The mileage is with my Superchips tuner set to "91 performance". Sold the tires, now I just need to get rid of the rims and replace the 285s with 285s. Sorry for the crappy phone-cam pic. It's at my farm while hunting last fall.
