Best pic I have right now can't find my camera but these tires have been awesome so far... great in mud, snow, rain and everyday driving and fairly aggressive.. not in the class of Swampers but a lot more than BFG ATs...

the mud graplers from your original post will fit your rim...

Not sure how tall they are though.
Its early and i dont feel like figuring it out.

factory wheels are 6.5 or 7.5" wide so i hope he isnt gonna mount them on stockers. Im guessing he has a 16x10.

16x10 would be to narrow for the originally posted tires.

16x12 would be the minimum i would run...

for 15.5 i would like a 12" wide wheel aswell.

My Ground Hawgs were 19.5 and they were on a 14" wide wheel. But then again Denman recommends mounting on a 9.75" wide wheel. (this is why Ground Hawgs run so much smaller than advertised) Denman gets their measurements from a tire thats crowned. Then you mount it on a wheel that its actually supposed to be on (at least 14" wide) and you stretch the tire out and your OD is 1-2" less than the OD that DENMAN has listed.

Idk, I ran my old 42x15x15s on 10 inch wide wheels. Looked good. My 44s are on a 14 though.
