As you know, tires have soft and flexible sidewalls so one rim can accommodate different tire sizes. That’s why you should know your rim width range, as tires of the wrong size may cause poor performance or even rub the fender. We provide the fitment data not only of the factory rim width range but also collect customized solutions all over the web with tire stretching samples.
