18x9 on a 38.50x14.50?

SuperliftMegaCab · 09-12-2009, 06:45 AM

Ok Im running 18x12 on a 38.50x14.50 right now. I got a guy who wants to buy my 18x12 Welds. Only thing is I find a lot of rims and not many are 12"wide. Most are 9 or 10"s.

How would a 9-10" rim look on a 14.50 tire?

Any pictures?

Im not to sure about this. I could have the guy give me cash and buy the new rims since my welds are fairl pricey but I dont know about running a 9-10".

Thanks

Im going to keep the welds since they fairly rare and very nice quality rims, and they at 12"wide.

Im just going to have them done in a gloss black or a flat black like the XD rockstars come in. I hate cleaning them. Ive tryed everything. Just going to get them done in black and not have to worry about anything.
