Are you guys running the new heavy ply tires on the OEM rims ?
What are you doing about trying to match up the PSI ratings of the rims vs tires ? It seems like those 10 ply's are 80# psi ?
Are the rims rated at the same ?
how would you know what psi the wheel is rated for? I've never seen psi for wheels, just tires?
I found my Outback OEM aluminum wheels on etrailer and these are the specs they list:
