Hey there Andy.I could not find 15 wide wheels anywhere and it was either 14 or 16 inch.The rules where I pull say that unless you are using 18.4 38's on 16 inch rim than 15 inch is maximum with 16.9's.I ended up having a set of rims 12 inch widened to 15 inch.16.9 38's look and fit great on a 15 wide wheel.Good luck.

I'm running mine on 14.5 inch rims at about 12-13lbs of air. Works very well for me, and have trophies and prize money to show for it.

We used a 16" rim, and it bites the ground really hard. If you go to wide then you loose tire height and inturn wheel speed.

I have mine mounted on 18" rims. The wider the rim you use the flatter the bars will be on the ground.
