Where are you guys buying the dirt bike tires at? Is there such a thing as a DOT approved dirt bike tire? To match my DOT tire rules? Yes. Google it. Not sure on sizes, they might be too big. Make them dot approved with a stamp lol

If only they made those in 14s! That'd be awesome. Both of my cars have 14 inch wheels and the wheel well is just too small to fit a 15 with a tire...

since the sidewall is so short it should fit. Rim size don't determine the tire height.

5 would be rim width. That tire is around 25" so you might be on to something here.

Are 27x8.50r15 too big for the front on fwd GM? Too tall for me. I like to keep them around 23" to 25" tall.

Just had some 8-14.5 mobile home tires mounted with tubes on 14" rims zero issues. Other than no buisness will do it unless you know someone.

Wouldn't it be just as easy to weld centers in a 14.5 rim ? Sounds like a good way to blow yourself up to me.

Anybody get a 5.00-15 tractor tire mounted up on a regular size rim, not a donut rim? Thought about trying it just don't know if it would seat up.

you can get it on there, might take a little bit of work, but it will go.
