It will be fine, from what I have heard the 8" wide rim will hold the bead on a lot better when aired down as compared to the 10" rim. It makes perfect cents...

I am running 33x12.50's on 15x8 wheels. They work good. I have also heard that the bead holds better with 15x8 wheels

I think you'll find the majority of people run 15x8's until you hit 14" or wider tires.
