Default 36x15.50s

Hey guys I just picked up a pretty solid set of Mickey Thompson ATZs from my friends tire shop. They are 36 x 15.50 R18 which is extremely wide. I dont really want to sell them unless I can get some cash for em but if I do keep em would I have a problem fitting them on my 18x9 rims? I have 37x13.50s on now but they wont last forever. The 13.50s look really wide as it is so any advice would be nice. Also if someone wants to buy them ill let them go for pretty cheap. Thanks

I highly doubt you could get 15.50s to mount on a 9" rim, but if you could there would be so much pressure on the beads I'm not sure that it would be safe.

My friend said they came off an f250 and they were so wide that the insides of them are a little damaged due to them rubbing on the control arms when turning. He said they should fit on my rims but I was also worried about popping a bead. Idk, maybe ill try it just to see or just sell em for cheap. Ill lose a lot of potential buyers with the side damage they have. Thanks guys.
