Re: "Plus-sizing" Tires But Maintaining Original Width

there are some rims on the market that has the same width as your original rim, but they're a bit much as well...

i think the original 14" rim has a 5.5" width... so if you bump up to a 16" diameter, and staying "thin", it's going to cost more, but i see them starting to make it for a few customers that want to keep the same width...

and as curtis said, the tire choice & cost will also go up
