Will this be safe. I think it will be but just wanted to make sure. They recommend 8" but ont really have the money to buy new wheels this second. The tires were a B-day present.

I want some AR-767 of Rockcrawlers so if you ahve any for sale..cheap :; email me.

I've been running my 32s on stock 15x7 Grizzlys for over a year now without any problems, except rubbing on the control arms.

You should have no problems running 11.5 on 7" I know plenty of people running this combo. No problems reported.

I'm running 33x12.5s on stock 7" steel wheels. I have had a couple of slow bead leaks, but that was after a VERY difficult run.

Agree with above... no problem. Ran 11.50s on the CJ for a year on the 7" rims...

AND now am running 12.50s on the 7" rims.. I'll never peel a tire off the rim again ! Held air as soon as I got it mounted.... BEFORE I pumped it up !

I like a lot of sidewall "pucker" to help protect the wheel. Neither right or wrong... just my preference. And it does not meet the official recommended specs. But a lot of stuff on my Jeeps won't
