Super Swamper LTB fitment - Land Rovers Only

Ares · 10-18-2006, 07:07 PM

Im looking to run the LTBs in 34x10.50. However, I would like to run steel wheels with the offset. According to Interco, the LTBs need an 8" rim. I can only find 16x7 and 15x7 rims. Has anyone run this tires on a 7" rim?

You will have NO problems running these tires on 7" rim. In fact, you'll probably be better off with a 7" rim. These tires run short - actual measurement is closer to 33".

as SCSL said. i currently run them on 16x7. no problems at all.

7" is fine. My friend runs that size tire on 15x7 rims. No problems.

A narrower rim is better. When you get the tires mounted on a narrow rim. You'll notice that the tire guy is having a very difficult time getting that tire on. This generally means that the tire is going to have a difficult time getting off again. Obviously, this is a good thing.

BTW, seriously consider running airsoft pellets in your tire. It'll be better than having the tire normally balanced.

I run them on LR 16x7 alloys, great bead retention as well.
