You will either require a lift kit or moderate fender trimming.

... also 2" spacers for the wheels to compensate backspace.

If I'm not mistaken, you'll also need 2" spacers, as the HMMWV wheels have a really deep offset that will interfere with the steering knuckle.

35' 37's
they fit if you flip the wheels backwards, just sucks when you you have to air up your tires...
plus you need really short valve stems

83 just flip them and they worked? Looks like you have lift there also? The brush guard rocks...I can get muddy to save alot of money if I need to air them up.

HOLY SH*%!! Are you for real? Well when the rim brakes in half and you take out a school bus full of kids and nuns... Look man the rim was NEVER designed to take a side load like that. IT WILL BRAKE!! I HAVE SEEN IT FIRST HAND. If it brakes and someone gets hurt they will find that and you will be at 100% Fault. Trust me.. 16 Year ASE and Shop manager I have dealt with this type of miss use and the consequences of doing so.

Well no joke but Ebay is a good spot. If you run your truck only off road you would be ok.. but high speed and large loads of turning will fold a rim. Search Ebay there are a couple people who make spacers CHEAP! and there not all that bad.
