I plan to put 31 x 10.5 x 15 tires on my truck. Is a 7" wide rim acceptable to use with these tires or do I need to go with a wider rim? Its just a 2wd and no plans for offroad use if that question happens to arise or if it has any bearing at all. Is the width of a rim to a certain extent more for looks?
