M/T 15 x 10's I am switching from M/T 15" x 8 1/2" x 26" to 15" x 10" x 26".
I was running the 8 1/2" on 15 x 8 rims would these rims be fine for my 10" slicks?
I had the 10" slicks fitted to the wheels and they looked a little balloonish.

Re: M/T 15 x 10's As a general rule, wheel size should be +/- 1" of the tread width.
Sure, you can do otherwise, but the tire's contact patch won't be optimum. A tire on too small of a wheel will prematurely wear out the center of the tire.
