would anyone pose opposition to mounting a 10.50 tire on a stock rim...? I am buying a set of Super Swamper 34/10.50 LTB's and it would save me about 300 bucks to not have to buy rims for them. Would you still only stick with 9.50's? Thanks for the help!!

Here I'm running 32x12.50's on Stock sammy rims 15x5.5



Rubbed really bad at full turn
You should be fine with a 10.50 on a stock rim may rub a little a 34x9.50 may still rub.

The only problem you will run into is if you pop a bead off your tire.  With that thin of a rim sometimes it is a real pain to get the tires to seal back up.  :)

I ran them around at 0 psi and did circles and couldn't get them to bust a bead.
but yeah if they did it would be a real pain in the rear.
