Which slicks...and rim width?

Are Mickey Thompson or M&H slicks better?
Also wit ha 20x8x14" slick...what is the ideal rim width?

M & H last longer for sure. I personallyt hink they are better.

I'd go with a 8 inch rim.

You can even go with a 14x7 rim

Hmm...M/T's website actually suggests to use a 14x6" rim with the 20x8 slicks...weird.

Ideally you want the rim width to be within an inch of the width of the tire.

We use 8" rim for 8-9.5" slicks

Can 22x8x13 slicks be mounted on a 5.5" wide rim?
