dont know if hell respond, hasnt been on for a while. haha but they wouldnt wear any different than the tires you have now. size dosent contribute to wear. it dose on other parts, but not tires. haha

Having a 12.5" wide tire on a 7.5" rim will pull the sides of the tire down and wear the center out quicker, that's why he asked. I don't know he amount or difference of wear vs the tire mounted on a 8-10" rim but it is said to be more,that's why its recommended to go no wider than 4.5"s wider than your rim(ie need atleast a 8" rim for a 12.5" tire)

Got it done :)

Now I just need my new tires. After it all has settled in I am sitting at ~39" to the top of the front fenders and ~39.75" to the rear.
