which is better?

are there any advantages to running a 10 inch rim with 10.5 slicks over an 8 inch rim? ( tires are not W's )

according to Nick it makes the tread wider..................


It will in fact allow the tire more contact with the pavement.......less walking around on the big end etc.

we run 12's. ran 10's before and see no performance gain but the 12's are more stable than the 10's at about 150mph. we do have to run more air pressure with the 12's than the 10's.
