Stock '98 rim with 32" tires...?

[182Ranger]

My '98 4x4 has 15 inch rims, and I believe (so says this website) that they are 7 inches wide. I am looking to fit 32" tires under a body lift. Are there tires out there that size that will fit the stock rim? Also, can a larger tire width (ex. 10.5) fit on a smaller width rim? Thanks.

For example...would a 33x12.5 fit on that rim? I can't find a 32 or 33 that is 7" wide.

Ideally you want an 10.50" wide tire, any wider you would want to get an 8" wide tire.

Do you know of any tire brands that make such a tire? I've been looking for a long time and getting fed up...

BFG makes the all-terrain and the mud-terrain in some oddball sizes, I'd check them out.

There may also be some crazy metric tire size that will do what you want.

Didn't see nothing in standard sizes, but I did some figuring...265/80R15 is roughly the size I said before. But to me, this seems like an odd size, and I can't find nothing on it.

I know for a fact you can get the BFG M/T and A/T in a 33x10.50

i'd go to 16 inch rims. many more choices out there for the size tires you want. 16x7 wheels would do you well... imho.
