Need help on wheels + tires

[hol]

I also would say to keep the 12.50's and get 8 inch rims.

Any help would be great, as I think this would be a way to imorove gas mileage.

IMHO 12.50 tires on a 10 inch rim is worthless, but thats just me. A 10.50 tire on a 10 inch rim . . . I dont even know if the bead would hold. Honestly, switching from a 12.50 tire to a 10.50 tire isnt going to raise your gas mileage much. I would run 15x8's with a 12.50 tire and just run a little more air pressure in them. I run 35 psi in mine. Free flowing exhaust and a K&N air filter would probably be money better spent, I think. Good Luck.
