Slicks on 0.5 inch wider rim?
Hello there!
We just bought some slicks (Pirelli P-Zero D7) to be used in future. Up front we have correctly sized rims according to this table: http://www.de.pirelli.com/de_DE/this_is_pirelli/motorsport/motorsport_tyre/circuit/circuit_de.jhtml But rears are 265/645-18 and should be mounted on 9.5 inch rims. 9.5 is kinda "odd" size and our wheels are 10 inch wide. Is it possible to mount them on wheel that is 0.5 inch wider? I know that slicks are picky when in comes to width, but it shouldn't be too bad, right?

Not a problem, the 9.5" rim specified is just the measuring rim used to get the posted dimensions, 10" is well within the range of acceptable wheel widths for that tire
