Tire mounting question.?
Need input on mounting the following tires on wheels for a Jeep Wrangler.
The tires are Pro Comp Xtreme All Terrain Radials, 31x10.50R15
The wheels are Black Rock Series 975 Type Blade Steel Wheel, 15x10.
It seems that there is some disagreement about mounting these, due to a .5 inch difference of the tire to the smaller (10) wheel.
Input? Dangerous? Stupid? OK?
Thanks,
Thanks to everyone so far.
In days gone by, I used to do this myself, when tools were present. Today, I lack the tools and would prefer to have someone more experienced do it, unless in a pinch. My worry is that the local stores seem to have problems doing this. Some say it can't be done, safely, and others say it can. So, I wanted more opinions.
Thanks again!
every tire size made has an equivalent size in either a larger or smaller size, that is called up sizing. for example a 235/75/15 is basically the equal to a 31/10.50/15 The 1/2 inch will mount safely and there isn't going to be a problem. the middle number on a tire size is the width ratio so the higher the number the narrower the width so a 50 is wider than a 78 and so on. We have found that most customer with trucks and SUV's like saying they have 31 instead of 235 or 245. The only time they will complain is when they have to replace them because for the most part these tires cost substantially more, then they wish they stayed with a standard size.
