I have some rims that have some turf savers on them... I want to put some off road tires on the rims... But I can't find a tire that will fit... The size on the turf savers says 15x6-6... Please help!

6"-6" rim. So, 6" rimm's tires are easy to find, but 6" wide maybe not. Try looking for 6"-8" wide tires, they should all fit. Maybe trail wolfs (?)


EDIT: Found some.

Kends scorpion: 14.5x7-6

Duro knobbys: 14x5.7-6 (145/70-6)

Different knobby (chinese) Same size as duro's: (14x5.7-6)

Thanks red... But can I fit a 7 wide tire on a 6 wide rim? And I also have front rims... They are ok for now... Just they are 11x4-2... I can't find any tires for those... Even can't find street tires

Yea you are totally fine. i think most rims come with tires one inch wider then the rim stock. Like my rear 12" rims are 7" wide and have 8" wide tires on it. Witch is perfectly fine. Heck, ive seen people put 12" wide tires on 8" wide rims no problem.

really, the only size you need to worry about is the bead size, which is the last number. try to get as close as possible to the rest of the numbers though. first is height of the tires, 2nd is width, 3rd is bead size
