Not sure I understand the question. But the tires are 16.00 x 20’s. Wheels and tires went on my bobbed M35A2

I flipped the hubs last night. The rear tires stick out less than an inch from the M105 bed, keep in mind ,I added 3" to the side that is now facing out. If you add a little less ,or go with a smaller tire, you should be clearly under the fenders. Also, of note, the rear tires don't have much...

Here is a frontal shot. If you are using a deuce bed, I think they will tuck under just fine. My rear hubs are not flipped yet, soon. The tires should track together when flipped, but I think they will still poke out from under a 105 bed a little, but maybe not?

Thanks for the compliment Carlo, my father in law taught me this valuable life skill. I thank him for it at every opportunity. I would like to think the 1.5" overlap of the wheel sections is carrying the load, and the weld is just having to deal with separation forces.

I thought about making them to sell, but it is so time consuming, they would probably cost $200 each.

Here is a pic of them mounted on the truck

If most of them have been scrapped, and otherwise not available, not terribly sorry not to have looked for them.

I didn't know that, are they readily available? Are they sought after?, hence more expensive? i.e. ...the stupid prices for A3 wheels.

Sorry about the name mixup, guess my mind is in overload right now anticipating the wheel/tire combo! Now that the project is coming to a close, looking back, it is worth it. You will get discouraged along the way, but keep going,thinking about almost free wheels. Also, the pride of making...

I got the wheels today. Unfortunately no tube flaps found locally. I did find a place in Georgia that had new 12" wide flaps for a 20" rim, and also 16.00 x 20 tubes, flaps $30.00, tubes $50.00....... will be here tuesday. I found a local shop to mount them for $15.00 each , when the flaps &...

I promise to post pics as soon as I have them. I pick up the wheels in the morning. Located the final tube. Still hunting 10.00 x 20 flaps, but will not rest tomorrow until I have them.

I am sure he could, but he has a narrow focus to his business, it is a road tractor tire center....white, black, & silver. On a separate note.... Cidrich, What size tubes & flaps did you use for your 53's?

The powdercoater said friday at best. Hopefully I will have them for the weekend. He can only do gloss finishes, so I will use the powder coating as a primer/sealer. I will just lightly scuff the finish and spray them green (they will come back gloss black).

I finally finished the last wheel. I took a little break after #2, and had a hard time motivating myself to finish them. Ah, but then I went to the rally this weekend in Denton, N.C.. Interest was renewed and they are done. I am off to the powdercoater in the morning ( 29.95 per wheel to blast...

Pics up! I started widening my wheels today/tonight/this morning...... I bought some 52" michelin XL's from the classifieds, realized that stock rims are not the way to go. I decided to follow Cidrich's plans and widen my stock rims. I am using one riveted rim and one welded rim. Blow holes...
