Ok so the answer is yes the 260 fits on a stock rocker 8" wheel and clears the belt, but what about on a 8.5 rc wheel?

I know with a Heartland kit an 8.5 with 260 will clear.

Just a headsup folks...I have had great results with both dunlop(250) and metz(260). I tried a veerubber 260/35/18. It seemed good, BUT DELAMINATED AND HAD VOIDS IN THE RUBBER with half the tread still left...I have NEVER seen a tire failure like that...I did get the dunlop now from dennis kirk for 175 plus 5 bucks shipping, good deal.
