nitto's and stock rims
probably on here already, but can't seem to find it on a quick search......

will 295/70/17 nitto a/t's fit safely on the stock 7.5" wide rims????? I know they will clear, but is this too much tire for that rim?

nittos site says that they are certified for 8.0-9.5" rim width- 7.5 is the rim..your under their approved width, but by only .5 so i wouldnt worry- good luck

They will be fine, I ran 315s on my stock 7.5" wheels for a while, just play with air pressure to get the best patch of rubber on the road.....

I'm pretty sure that's what RED WING NUT is running...maybe check the '04 forum, I know I've seen a few there.

our fx4 wheels are 18x7.5 that being said, sure you can put the tires on, however, it isnt recommended due to the large difference in width- ie, advised 9" minimum, using 7.5"...
