    I need some help I have searched the forum and am more confused with tire size and rim size.

    I am hoping that someone can tell me if this setup will work and if not can you tell me where I can locate 13”rims and tires that will fit my truck.

    2021 daihatsu hijet mini dump truck with a 2”lift (I am thinking of taking the 2” lift off)

    The tires and rims I have found are

    Rim =width 4.5

    Off set 35

    Rim diameter 13”

    Bold pattern 4x100

    The tire=

    165/80r13 forceum
    thank you for your help

    That will work 165 fits on original rims with no lift. Yo could go to 185 with a spacer or less positive offset im going 25x9x12 itp on 12x7 4x100 wheels with 28 offset

    Do I understand you right 165/80 R13 will fit my 12” rim?

    I am pretty sure the designation R13 means it is for a 13" rim/wheel.

    It does. I'm a tire tech.
    no I was was saying a 165 blah blah is the same as a 165/80/13. First number is width second is a ratio of the first number. So the sidewal is 80% of the width. 3rd is wheel size. I was just saying 145s 155 and 165 fit stock so they would fit with a lift for sure. Best bet is to find the right offset on a 14 wheel so you have more and cheaper options in a dot passenger tire. They are hard to find but you can get them with a +5 or +10 offset. If you get a wheel adapter you can find them easier. For me the 4x100 makes the offset hard to find and I have sources but the internet is a much larger source but they don't give me cost like the company does

    Itp ultra cross R 23x8x12. Fit a normal 12x7 4 wheeleer/utv wheel. Good for road or mud tight big knob tire. You can get them online for 120 each wich isn't bad considering i get dealer prices and they cost me 102 each and we would sell at about 130. They are dot approved and 8 ply! This is what you want and need omho

    thank you for the help I found a set of rims matching what is on the third link.
    stock rims for a 1997 Nissan Sentra 13x5 it says that the rims will bolt right up and work.
    I am about to pull the trigger on them just wanted to check with you first to make sure I understand this correctly before I go forward with this.
    this will fit my 2021 daihatsu hijet dump truck.
    thank you again for your help

    As long as the bolt pattern is right shouldn't be a problem. Rims are same width as originals so no turning issues as long as you dont go to large on tire size. I can get 1657013 thunderers 8 ply so I assume one of your local shops can source them as well.

    Update us with some pictures when you get them on!

    For mud/snow you can't beat the itp 23-8-12 tires grimports sells them online and I assume your local tire shop can get them. They would fit a 12x7 wheel tho

    thank you for the help
    I think I will go with the 175/65 r13 that should fit my truck with out cutting it and I may be able to remove the 2"lift (not sure about that yet) I would like to find some mud tires but not to aggressive I have received 3 out of 4 rims don't know where the last one is but contacted the seller and hopping he can locate the last one.

    changed my mind I am thinking about a 165/70R13 the local tire shop could get me 175/70R13 but the tire looks a little close to the fender 22.7 inches and I have 23"
    so now I am looking for 165/70R13 they look like a better fit. if anyone has any idea as to a better tire please let me know thank you for the help

    Looks good! I still only have 30 miles on my new wheels and tires... been on 2 months. But my carb swap is almost done. Would of been done last night but it was 15° f with 30mph wind. So I grabbed my gauges and started putting together my custom cluster.
