Default HEMMTT Whells on a M123/M125 10 ton truck

Does anyone know if the HEMMTT wheels will fit on a stock M123/M125 10 ton truck wheel hub?

i dont think so, the 123/125 has 24" rims that fit over very fat drums( i would guess about 22"), also the bolt pattern is bigger so is the center hole

If they're standard ten-hole Budd, the only thing to worry about is the offset being correct.

You might look into PLS rims. 11" pilot hole, 10 on 13.25" bolt pattern IIRC

What are PLS rims? IIRC the bolt pattern is the same as given in the M123/M125 TM, but they didn't give a pilot hole diameter. A rough tape measure job on my front hubs puts my pilot hole at about 10-3/4". That might work, to the best of my belief the pilot hole does not carry any of the load (in fact there is about a 1/8" gap between the pilot hole in my rim and the front hub), it is just there to roughly align the wheels to fit the studs through the bolt holes. I believe all of the vehicle load is carried solely by the wheel studs.

If I am wrong, somebody please correct me!

Lee-

The PLS rims are from the M1074/M1075. They have the larger pilot hole and bolt pattern that probably matches your truck and the M911. I have found that HEMTTs, M915s and 5 tons have the smaller bolt pattern and smaller pilot hole.

I don't have a 10 ton, but I expect your rims are stud centric. If you have inner and outer lug nuts on the rears, you have stud centric wheels. They should have a slight bevel at each bolt hole, used for centering the rim on the studs.

I would look at trying the PLS rims, especially if you want to try running singles. The 16R20s might be a good fit.

If anyone needs any, I have eight 85%+ Michelin XL 1600X20s mounted on the correct HEMTT rims. I've seen guys put these on 5 tonners. If anyone is interested, I'd sell the whole lot for $2,520 (what I paid...$2,400...plus tax). That is a little over $300 per tire/rim. By the way, my estimation of 85%+ is a very conservative estimate...some still have mold seams. I just want to make sure whoever buys them is happy.
