Ok guys and gals, first time post, long time reader (loooong time) so here is a little background on what ive been up to recently for my XJ.
I have recently purchased a set of new to me/used 15x10 steelies to replace my rubbing stockers with 33x10.50 KM2's. I have read ALOT of information on the pros and cons of the 15x10 and know where my plans of my rig are heading (in the process of an axle swap from D35 to 99' 8.25 w ZJ discs, shaved pumpkin, raised shock mounts, and locked)
My plan is by the end of winter to be able to hit the trails in Moab with my family and their TJ thats 100% built.
As of right now my KM2's have 5000 miles on them with a 5th thats never seen pavement, so I would really like to not sell them or have to buy a second set of tires to run these wheels. I plan on installing rock rings in the steelies to protect the lip of the wheels but i'm worried about airing down too low and blowing a bead. I run 35 psi in my tires on the street and was wondering how low I could safely go on the trails?
All of the threads ive reaserched say you can't air down as low as an 8" rim but they never specify how low... Say 12 psi on a 15x8 and 20 psi on a 15x10?
Thank you all for your help
