Re: 325/80/16 on stock wheel?

Whatever, I wouldn't. It will crown and wear in the center and be less stable being pinched in. I know tire manufacturers would recommend 10-12". It's the width that matters,not the height. But,with height comes more sidewall sway and safety is a concern. Either way,there is no 8" stock wheel in 16" anyway.
