325 takes a 11.5" wide rim to look right. I have 325's on 12" right now. 325's on a 10.5" rim will be pinched. And You're trying runflats. Think they might take a different type of rim. And that's why they was having trouble trying to seat the bead.

Well there are different types of runflats, like the Michelin PAX System requires special wheels that have special lips and an inner ring. Goodyear EMT however are made to be mounted on a reqular wheel, replacing a regular tire with no modification. However, the width I'm trying to run is a bit wide for my wheel obviously, and that in combination with the low profile and super stiff sidewall seems to make my tire/wheel combo impossible to fit
