i am looking at getting a set of maxxis bighorn 32x11.5r15 what size rims would you run. the sierra doesn't get driven much just to 4x4 parks to go camping every now and then. i have a set of 8inch and a set of 7 inch rims which would be better. i keep about 10 psi offroad just want to be able to run it at that with out popping off the rim.

My brother runs 32x11.5R15 Maxxis Bighorns on 15 x 8's on his hilux.
He has popped a couple of beads so far but I wasn't there so don't know what pressure/ driving factors lead to the bead coming off.
Never had problems when I've been out with him.

Fail.
10's need a minimum of 12.5" tyres.

Will 15x7 be ideal for a 9.5 tyre?
