Default Rim width
Do 6.5 size tires fit on 6 size rims? If they do, then what are the benefits and draw backs?

Thanks

As long as the tire has a stiff sidewall, it should be fine. Less expensive/lower quality tires tend to have weaker, more flimsy sidewalls than tires that are quality made and well engineered.
