dumb rim qestion
hello gents..
so here i am with a 38in tire with a 15in rim... i changes axles etc... and brands of tires.. but i cannot offload this extra tire... anywhere.... so.. my question is.. why not just make it my spare?.... DO THEY MAKE.. 15in rims with an 8 hole pattern?...... to fit 3/4t axles. i know it's an unpleasent fit for the front rotors.... but.. i just gotta do something with this tire..

Re: dumb rim qestion
I've run some 15" 8 lug wheels on a 3/4 ton. They were 8" wide, the 10" would hit on the rear drum preventing it from seating properly. Also I had to grind material off the front calipers for clearance.
