Tire width on Factory Rally

Anyone know how wide a tire you can put on a 15x8 factory rally wheel? Looking at getting BFG ATs and deciding between 10.5" and 12.5". Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks.

If you go on BFG's website and surf around they have the recommended minimum and maximum rim sizes for every tire they sell.

Re: Tire width on Factory Rally

I've run 10.5 and 12.5 on 8" wheels before, my last daily driver had 33x12.5 Super Swampers on 15x8 wheels. My C10 has 31x10.5s on 15x8 wheels. I prefer to run my wheels narrow so 12.5's didn't bother me but the "right" tire would be a 10.5 for an 8" wide wheel.
