Question:
will a 5.3 x 12 tire/wheel be much wider than a 5.7 x 8 tire/wheel? will there is plenty of height clearance, I more concerned with the width and if it will have enough room distance from the frame when mounted on the hub.

Helpful Expert Reply:
A 5.30x12 tire such as part # AM10064 is around 21.7" diameter x 5.3" wide whereas a 5.70x8 tire such as part # AM10013 is around 18.1" diameter x 5.7" wide. Therefore, the new tire will be 3.6" taller x .5" narrower than the one you have now. You only need to account for half of each measurement for clearance.
I have attached a list of our 5.30x12 tires for you as well.
