    Sermis has a set of Humvee wheels that have M715 centers in them. That is really the only way to make any kind of non M715 rim work. Or you can have a rim made custom for you.

    stock rim is 16", humvee rims are 16.5.

    Bob Cowan (robertcowan) does/has done custom rims with 715 centers and tubeless 16.5" wheels so you can run cheap surplus humvee tires.

    There michelin XL's and XZL's available surplus now that'll fit on the stock rims.

    Some people want to get away from the 2 piece rims, tubes, flaps, etc and go with custom tubeless rims in 16".

    Doug made his own using 715 centers and humvee 8-bolt rims with centers cut out. Good enough for off-road, not setup for on-road (tolerances? he's a plumber).
