Im looking to get some M&H 24.5x8.5x15 slicks, or somewhere along that size, whats the smallest possible width rim can those things mount on? would they fit on a 15x6.5 size rim?

JohnM&H: would u care to chime in and tell me what availabe sizes u have or coming out with for the 15" rims? thanx in advance!

 

general rule of thumb the biggest you should go would be a 1 inch differance from wheel width to slick width.....

although i do have a 10.5 inch slick on an 8 inch wheel.

 

I had 8" on a 5' rim no problems! Rob

 

I would suggest using the M&H-> 7.5/23.0-15 because there meant for the 6" rim size so you'll get a better contact patch. IMO!!

 

im currently using 22x8x15 MT on a 15x6.5 rims and i need to get a much bigger slicks. the 7.5x23x15 has less contact patch and it will not cut it.

so anyone else got some info's?

 

Well since your already using the 22x8's why not step up to the 8.5/23.0-15's then. Didn't know you where using the other's the first time.

 

i would like to get taller than 23" to get higher mph.

Well (TurboDANDEE) The 8.5/24.5-15 needs a 8"rim size that is what M&H req's now by usesing a 6.5" you are going to push the slick in more and it will cause a crown in the center and you will lose some of the contact patch. I would atleast go with a 7" or better. I hope this helps.
