Rim widths

Before pulling the trigger on ordering rims, want to double check sizes, ordering front 2.15x19" for a 325/19 AM26
Rear will be 3.5x18" for a 130/70/18" AM23
These will fit up without issue?

Yes...I have been running the stock rim, which is a 1.85 rim with a 3.25x19 tire. The 2.15 rim will take the peak off the tire somewhat, but it will be fine. The 3.50 rear rim is just right for the 130 tire. I think a 3.0 rim is best for a 130 tire but the 3.50 rim will work fine. Most times that's the rim used. I have been running this combo for many, many moons without a single problem.
