Default Tire?

I just picked up a set of Kenda bear claws to put on a set of 10x10 rims I already have. They are 22x8x10's Will these fit the 10" wide rims fine?

Well I mounted them up yesterday. And they do have a more stretched look to them. Not the buble look they would have had. But they should be fine sidewalls still bulge out a little. Mounted them on ITP T-9 pro rims and man this combo is extremely light! Will be trying them out this weekend.

i've just got 2 maxxis front pro tires in that size but on 10x5 Douglas .190 rims. i went riding last sat. made a big diffrence in steering effort and performane.i would'nt go far with out testing them out first.it'd suck to be miles from home or truck and pop a bead off.

Well I went on a 100 plus mile trip a couple weeks ago. And they worked great. It was med to fast pace riding sliding around corners and never had a problem with the beads. The bear claws did an excelent job in the snow! We were riding snowmobile trails, open to both atv and sleds for a short time. Also fallowed the 4x4's threw a couple trails they opened up. Made it threw the first one fine. Second one had a good hill in it and just couldn't do it. Had to turn it around and get the heck out of there. Other than that hill the bearclaws got me everywhere the big ol' 4x4's could go. In the snow anyway! We'll have to wait till it warms up to try'm up in the mud.
