What rim width gives the flat profile with the 14.50 tires? Will 12" wheels and 14.50 Xtreme's allow for the drifing?

Thanks.

It's the tires we run that have the flat profile Dune Sports of America - Dunesports. They come in 14.50 x 15 & 17 or 16.50 x 15 & 17.

Ok, are the 14.50's still run on a 12" wheel?

We run a 14" wheel

If you put an extremme on a 12 ' it will be relativly flat but not nearly like the STA tires

Thanks Grant. I have run 13plus tires and with the power I had before I could drift those pretty nicely, but they were a bit small for the power I had. But now I will have more power and need a bigger tire, but still want to be able to slide it since I dont have a turn brake.
There is a set of the Extreme 14.5's in the classifieds for a good price, if you think those may do OK for me. I just got my 12" beadlocks today.

What do you think?
