Default Anyone running MT DR 295/50/16?

Not sure if they are even out yet. Just curious what rims you are using. MT website says use 8 to 10 inch rims. Seems way to wide for a 8 inch rim.

I tried to get a set of those a few months ago and they dont seem to be out yet...I think there is a part number and even a price, but my local supplier who is a big dealer with M/T said they were not available yet...I ended up with the M&H 275 55 R16s DRs and they work very well also and appear to be way lighter than the M/Ts...They measure roughly 28x10...Jegs has them for like $192/tire...And they fit well on the stock 16x8s...

I have 275/60s on a 8" wide rim and I haven't had any problems but even they look a tad too wide. I wouldn't put 295s on a 8." 8.5"+ rim for sure.

Interesting. I've never heard of that size. I have their 315/45/16's. When I wear these out if that other size is available I'm going to try them out.
