Re: 11.5 inch wide ET street...will it fit on an 8 inch wide rim I got 26/11.5/16 on stock 9inch rims. Tight fit no problem. 8inch 15's Hmmm, I think they might fit but if they are too squeesed in,they might slip when tire expends on burnout or take off.
Anyone that actualy got tis set up to help him???

Re: 11.5 inch wide ET street...will it fit on an 8 inch wide rim Would they seal on a 10 inch rim? I was going to pick up a set of used 10 inch pro stars but i want to be sure they will fit...anyone?

Re: 11.5 inch wide ET street...will it fit on an 8 inch wide rim you have to remember that a 11.5 ET street doesn't mean 11.5" of tread. I believe the tread width on a 11.5" ET Street is only 9.7" i believe. This is a popular tire that many people run on 4th gen salad shooter wheels (16" version obviously).
They will fit and be fine, they just wont have all of the available tread width on the ground due to the thinner rim. Dont worry about it

Re: 11.5 inch wide ET street...will it fit on an 8 inch wide rim I ran 26x12.5x15 et streets on 15x10 welds and i don't think that 11.5's are wide enuff, i would run 11.5.'s on 15x8's maybe 15x9's... i ran 26x11.5x16's on 16x9's and they fit very well.

Re: 11.5 inch wide ET street...will it fit on an 8 inch wide rim So does that mean I couldn't run a 26x11.5x17 on my Fikse 17x11 wheel? I would need a wider ET Street?
