exactly trying to figure out if a stiff sidewall on a tt5s would be possible to mount on a 12" or is it just to stiff of a tire to mount.

Not to hi jack but, Does anyone have a section width measurement of a MT 28 X 10.5 or a MT 28 X 10.5W on a 12" wheel? MT's site only gives the section width for a 10" wheel.
