So I am thinking - neither the 16x8 nor the 16x10!

How much lift do you have on the truck?

On a truck, I like having the rims narrower than the tires, as it protects the bead of the rim better. Tire takes the hit before the rim does.

Tire manufacturers will give a range of rim widths that are acceptable for the tire. They should also specify what rim width was used to measure the tire. It DOES make a difference.

On a ten inch ram, I would go five at least, maybe six inches b/s.
