Pictures of Falken 512s bead and rim

I am looking into buy 235/40ZR18 Falken Ziex 512, but my brother tells me that at his job he always see falken tires not sitting right on the rims. So does anyone have pics of these tires in that size, with an 8 inch rim, so i can get an idea of how the tire bead will sit against the rim.

Thanks,
MAXecutive

I work for the company and the ziex 512 sticks out a little bit because it has an improved protection ridge that used just incase you mis judge a curb and wont screw your rims up. just run an appropriate tire size like 235-245 and you will be fine.

i have the 225/40/18 and they are fine. Rim protection is probably the cause of the stickin out. It performs like a ***** too, awesome for the money.
