Can I get away with 32's on 7" rims?

Hey there,
Just wondering what you all think. I have 31 10.50's on my AR 767 15X7 rims. 4.5" backspacing. I'm considering going up to the 32 11.50's (although I really wish 32 10.50's were more common). I like the idea of the narrower rims allowing me to air-down a bit more on the trails, but don't know if tires 4.5" wider than the rims is pushing that too much.
Thanks for any thoughts,
Todd
 
32x11.50 on a 7" rim is the same as a 33x12.50 on a 8" rim. Do it.

You may rub a little on your control arms at full lock, though.
 
Cool! Just the answers I was hoping for. :cheers:
As you all know, new rubber is expensive enough without having to invest in new rims too.
