Getting tires mounted

[LEcustoms]

I need help finding someone on Long Island that is capable of mounting my 37/13.50/17 Toyo open country's tires on my 17x12 Weld racing method wheels. So far no luck even went to the local truck shop that deals with lifted trucks and they were also unable to do it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here are a few pictures of the wheels.

Anybody. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Even if not from new york area just some info on getting tires mounted on 12" wide rims. Difficulty of finding someone to mount them and cost.

I would check with your dealership. No one local to me (NTB. Merchants) was capable of doing 35s let alone 37's.

I don't think they have an issue with the size of the tire. That tire is not designed to fit on a 12" wide wheel and they don?t want to be liable. Toyo's have very thick side walls and they are designed to fit a 8.5 -11" wide wheel. It will be hard as hell to seat the bead. I talked to a buddy of mine who makes wheels for a living and he agrees that these are not a good match. If and when you do get them on, you will be adding a lot of extra stress on the sidewall of the tire and if you ever air them down for offroading you will bust the bead very easily. Here is a link to Toyo?s specs http://marktg.toyotires.com/file/18136.pdf

Hope this helps

Going too wide on rims is as pobably more dangerous than too narrow. Loosing the bead when depressurizing and excessive sidewall flex will cause uneven wear and possible overheating and blow outs in hot summer weather.
Those are beautiful rims, but driveability is going to suffer.

Thanks guys. I was going to get a set of staun bead locks for the wheels because of the airing down issue. I guess I'm SOL.
