You may need to remove the quad shocks, but they should fit fine otherwise.

A 7" factory wheel is really too skinny for a 10.5 tire. You may want to look at wheels at least 8" wide (best would be 10" wide)

no i havent had any problems with them on a 7 inch rim. i do run tubes in them however. i have welds in front and rear for street tires i went to a weld for my slick so my car looks all the same the rim is much lighter and the tire is on the recommended width rim. but it has worked fine for the past 4 years on a factory rim.
