15x7 is recommended up to a 10.50 tire. I ran 34x.10.50 on a 15x7 wheel w/4" backspace and it was damn near perfect. Cleared the LCAs, and stuffed the tire just inside the stock flares.
If i had gone 15x8, prob would not have been able to pull that off.
Some guys even say 15x7 on a 12.50 is the "poor man's beadlocks" lol.. I know a 15x8 is a common size, but because 33x12.50 is what so many guys like to run. For a 12.50 tire, 15x8 is better, but I like 15x7. 10.50 tire is just so much easier on front suspension wear as well. Just my opinion though.

Well I want to go bigger eventually and it would be nice if I didn't have to buy rims and tires next time like I am now.
Btw, I want a beefy m/t that lasts a long time. More off/road than on.
