Question,,,

Mickey Thompson and Goodyear slicks say 1" +/- tread width and thats what the wheel width should be

Im looking at the following tires on an 8" rim
1) Mickey Thompson 3055
28.1" o.d
10.0" tread width
11.7" section width
measured on a 10" wheel
suggested wheel 10"

2) Goodyear D2001
28" o.d
10.0" tread width
12.0" section width
measured on a 10" wheel
suggested wheel 10"

3) Hoosier 18154C07
28" o.d
10" tread width
11.4" section width
measured on an 8" wheel
suggest 8"-10" wheels

Now, why cant i use the Mickey Thompson or Goodyear on an 8" wheel

If any of these tires were on an 8" wheel would they need more/less pressure than when on a 9" or 10" wheel? Would it have any kind of strange effects due to the fact the wheel width is 2" narrower than the tread width ?

Tires will have tubes, tires will be bolted to the wheels too

Thanks for the help
