Soooo, are you saying they will not work? Or just don't do it?Your rims are not rated for radial tires, so consider that if you choose to go to modern radial tires.
8 bolt rims are for bias only.SO, Not to hijack but, how can you tell he doesn't have radial tires? I can't see squat in the pics. Could be my computer but,,,, Wanna make sure I am not running in to the same situation as my rig bounces at about 45 mph also. I checked front end, etc but can't find anything out of whack.
I know this is a touchy subject but, I don't drive this off road, I maintain about 35 psi in ea tire. Is that too low? Should I bump it to 45psi? Someone told me a while back that if the tire was under inflated that the run flat could not "situate" itself in the tire and cause a bounce. Could that be it? Suspension feels good, shocks etc but I will double/triple check. Thx8 bolt rims are for bias only.
First picture from front shows the thread clearly. They have a different tread pattern with a center rib than the goodyear radial angled blocks on mt
Things to look at for bounce is tire pressure, shocks?, worn suspension components?
I am thinking you need less air not more? OE , they were pretty low air pressures on them.I know this is a touchy subject but, I don't drive this off road, I maintain about 35 psi in ea tire.

You can do it fine, just upgrade your wheels in the process. You’ll have radial tires and heavier duty wheels.Cool cookville is far from me, I can handle that pick up instead of shipping. Soooo, are you saying they will not work? Or just don't do it?
