I run my 14.9"s on a 16" rim and im un stoppable. I wouldnt go any less than a 14" wide rim. A 12" rim was made for a 13.6

14.9 - 38 6ply all traction field and road on a 12" rim with the correct air pressure (5-7 psi @ 4500 lbs) is a tough combo to beat. Provided you have a very good style of cut on the lugs if they allow cuts. Dont under estimate the value of air pressure, rim width and ply rateing (sidewall stiffness) cobination. This will often determine weather your in the money or not especialy at a dead weight pull.
