You don't think the front rims being 8_12 @ the back being 10_12 and the tires being 9_12 Will hurt anything ? I've never ran my tires this way before.

No the difference is insignificant. I run 10s on back 9s on front with the same rim width. I wish i would have done the same 'll around but next time I may. There a lot of people doing the same thing you did with 0 problems

9s won't be to wide I really believe you will be fine.
Are you having problems running that setup?
No plenty of room and no scrubbing or binding . Be running it for almost 2 years pic taken today you can see there not tight in there lots of room.

Nice looking ride. Looks like you could run 28s. So your front rims are 27_8_12 @ rear are 27_10_12?

I'm not worried about them being to wide. Cause the wild thangs I tried to order were 27_9_12@ 27_11_12 . I'm just not sure bout what effect the 8 _ rim in front @ 10 on rear with a 27_9_12 tire is gonna have.not gonna be able to rotate due to the rim size.

I kinda get lost on the tire rotation thing, on a S x S, I ride mostly dirt, I can see it if you ride mostly payment. In the mountains and mud I ride in, it would scare the heck outta me to head down a muddy mountain with lesser tires in the front than the rear????????
