Ive got a deal on a set of 16.5's weld racing rims for my f350. A couple of friends say dont get 16.5's for 2 reasons
1. tire selection
2. the bead doesnt stay well (he says under 15psi you can break the bead)
I want BFG 35 x 12.50 x 16.5's so selection is fine, but what about the other. Are 16.5's ok?
