Default Can a 325/50/15 tire fit on a 9'' rim

i was looking at the 15x9 centerline convo pro's with a 6.5'' bs and wanted to know how a 325/50.15 mt dr would fit on those rims. i know on MT website that approved rims will fit from 9-12'' but how would it affect the tire and how would it look?

WELCOME TO LS1TECH HOME OF THE DONT KNOW SH** KNOWITALLS.ON A 17+ WHEEL IT IS NOT SAFE TO RUN THAT SIZE TIRE SINCE MOST ON HERE RUN 17S THATS ALL THEY KNOW. HE HAS ASK ABOUT A 325/50/15!!!!! THE TIRE MANUFACTURES RECCOMEND 9-11.5 FOR THAT SIZE. A 15" TIRE HAS MORE SIDE WALL to stretch... most of you all have smartass answers for him and dont even know what you talking about...

to aswer your question. they will look fine if you like that buldged sidewall look. as far as affect there really wont be any negative affect... hell less rim less weight.

Thank you skatinjay. i wanted to know opinions on how it would look/affect the tire(maybe make it bulge in the middle more). Right on the manufcaturers website it says you can run a 9'' rim. I dont need any smart *** answers. I asked a legitamite question and wanted some legitamite answers.

Gator- Sorry about posting in two forums i posted it int he drag racing forum figuring most of those guys might have done this or have seen it done and then figured i might get more answrs in the wheel/tire forum.

go to camaroz28.com and read the stickies in the wheel/tire section. I'd give you a link but my computer's being a bitch right now. Good luck!
