I am considering some Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 in 235/40/17 and was wondering about fitment on a 7.5" rim. The specs on tirerack say a rim width range of 8-9.5". Anyone put oversize tires (width wise) on rims? What was your experience?

Should work...I used to work at a tire shop and we would sometimes install some crazy sizes onto some rims. I don't think that .5" would make much of a difference if tirerack says the minimum is 8.0". But then again, I could be wrong.
