I have 255/60-15 BFG Radial TAs on Street Lite 7" rims, but will be using these rims to mount MT ET Streets, which will stay on the car most of the time. But I would like to mount the BFG TAs on a set of Street Lites with 6" rim width, to be used for long distance cruises to save wear and tear on the MTs.
All the info I have found shows a 7" rim is the minimum for a 255/60-15, but what happens if they are mounted on 6" rims? Is it a safety issue, will they roll off the rim when cornering? Or is it just that the tires will wear faster? I'd really like to use what I already have, but only if it is safe to do so.
