Wheel width advice

I'm looking to reconfirm my wheel width selections. I'm running a spec tire Senior Predator Division that requires a Burris TX-33 treaded tire,following widths:
Left front: 11x5.5x6
Right rear: 11.5x8.5x6
Left rear and Right front: 11.5x7x6

I believe I will require a 6-1/2 wide wheel, an 8-1/4 wide wheel and two 9-1/4 wide wheels to achieve a 35 to 36-1/2 inch stagger (tire/wheel diameters).

Am I on the right track ?

Thank you.
 
That may work .
What do they measure currently?
I have not ran many tx series though have the k series .
Myself i could not get much change out of the tires as far as size .

They don't measure anything right now. I need to buy them before I can mount them to the correct width rim and them measure them.

I think you'll want to mount up a 10" right sides just to keep the stagger down. LR 8 1/4 - 8 3/4" to get stagger where you want it, and then size them from there. LF 6 1/2" will be fine...I'd suggest a 6" if you can't get the RF moutned up or kept small enough to get your desired front stagger.

We mount, size, and cut these treaded tires often. If you have any questions or need anything, just give us a holler at the shop.
