Cool

They will fit, but the you should probably be running 8 inch wide rims with those tires. It most likely won't do anything, as I have seen trucks with this combo before, and it has worked fine, but what tire companies suggest will happen is the tire will wear out on the inside tread. I have not seen this with a stock rim though.

You can cram them on your wheels, but they suck the tires in big time. You really need at least an 8" wheel. 32's would work better, but I would get some different wheels. Later..
