Default Mtz

Just go for MTZ the best tyres at the moment. I have been driving on road and off road and they just perform great. Not loud at all like other muddies. Perform extremely well off road especially mud and bog holes trust me and yes you can use them on the stock Rubi wheels just check the back spacing bec you said you bought the from US

Good Luck

I wanna keep these rims (btw, Ive got 5 new rims/tyres i pulled off my rubi when I brought it home, sittin in the garage if anyones interested) I wanna use the sahara rims (18") but want some proper rubber. No A/T, just M/T. It will still be used on the road a bit too, but I dont care. Whats the fattest I can go with these rims and with who? They are 18" by 7.5. Was told in the bfgoodie M/T in 35's they go to 275? want fatter, but not sure what im limited to with the wheels. After 34 or 35"s

Any help would be great. Just wanna keep these rims on it

Legally you don't have a hope of putting a good size tyre on a 7.5" rim, need at least an 8" rim, pref 9".
However have seen 12.5" tyres work well on 7" rims.

The tyres highlighted in this post are your best bets, they are 12.5" wide, the MTZ min rec rim is 9" and the STT is 8".

So physically you can put them on your 7.5" rim, and as far as cost goes, hmmm, well your going 18's! a deep pocket is mandatory
