325-50-15's on 12'' wide wheels question...

[toofastforyou]

I know that with a notched frame, the most popular choice for tires and wheels are 325-50-15's mounted on 10'' wide wheels...but I'm wondering if these tires could be used on 12'' wide wheels?...Has anyone ever tried that?
I'm asking this because right now, I have some 10'' wide Billet Specialties ''Street Lites'' wheels with 4.5'' of rear spacing and some 275-60-15's, and plan to have the frame notched this spring. I'm pretty sure that the 4.5'' r.s. won't be enough (and that I'll probably put them up for sale) if I want to use some 325's so before ordering new wheels with the correct r.s. (5.5''), I wanted to know if I should stay with 10'' wide or go to 12'' wide...

Thanks,

Claude. :wink:

The tire will fit the rim no problem, not sure if it will fit under the car with a 12" wheel though.

Yeah, that's why I was asking, but haven't had an answer from someone who's actually done this. :redface:
