Question about 245/35/20 tires

I'm going with 20'' rims and I already bought the tires which are 245/35/20 low profile tires but I needed to know if I cn fit a 7.5'' rim on that tire? Also I have another question. The tires are tubeless radials so do ever require air at all?

Aint all tires tubeless? It's not a bicycle tire right. You need to pump it with air relative to the max psi it has and the weight goin on the tires.

Yeah I just found out all car tires are tubeless. Do you know about the 7.5'' rim fitting though?

Go to the tire manufacturer's website (or any tire website including Tire Rack). They list acceptable rim widths for every tire they sell. Just click on "specs" and all the possible tech on that tire will be listed.

I hate to do this but I suspect you've got more problems than the rim - which BTW isn't wide enough for the tires.

Could you supply us with the vehicle these tires are destined for?
