Hey has anyone run 15x10 rims with 33's on their hilux? Just wondering how they perform off road because i'm tossing up between 15x10's and 15x8's for my '99 lux. Definitely don't want to sacrifice off road performance for looks.
Cheers

The only thing I can think of if running a 10" rim when aired down if the tyre is not wide enough you may roll it off the rim.

What width tyre were you thinking of running?

So of you are going to run a 33/10.5x15 (I run the same tyre on a 7" rim) the 10" rim is way to wide.

Cheers mate, i'll take your advise. Thought it might be a bit over the top.

ollie,
Check out the tyre manufacturer's web site.

It will have the specifications and tell you the recommended width of wheel/rim to use for each particular tyre size.
