9.5" wide tire on a 7" rim?

[250rmanfmf]

Hey guys,

I have a set of 8 inch x 7 inch wide rims for a atc70. I found some duros I want to run but they only make them in a 9.5 wide. Will they work on the rim? I saw a pic with them on a atc70 but not sure if it was a 8 inch rim they were the 7 inch wide rim.

any help would be great

Thanks
Tyler

Yes a 9.5" wide tire will work on a 7 inch wide rim. For comparison, I have a set of 12 inch wide bear claws on 8 inch wide rims.

Yep, those are the ones, are those on 7 inch wide rims?

Yep, those are the ones, are those on 7 inch wide rims? Yes they are on 7 inch rims little tight for the factory fenders. I learned the hard way. I suggest race cut fenders if you run them on a 70.

TylerYes, however they will be a little taller than they would on the 9.5 rims. This will cause them to "roll" over a bit more in a turn and be a little more "bouncy" than they normally would.
