225 on 8,5" rims anyone ?
Hi !

Is there anyone here that uses 225 x 40 x18 tires on a 8.5" rim ?
255 wide is standard size today on that rim.
-If so does it work well or how does it look ?
Thanks !

should look fine, 225 on a 9" wide rim starts stretching it and the rim sticks out a little, but 225 on a 8.5" should be ok.
