Anybody know how much taller the super singles will make an M813 set up? Also, will the singles fit right on to the truck or is there some modifying to go along with it??

Don't know how much higher, but I know that mine is tall! I have the 14.00R-20's on mine with no mods and use it heavily loaded off road with no issues whatsoever. I was going to go to the 16.00R-20 size but you cannot convince me that they wouldn't rub with 25k in the bed off road. I know some fellas have put that size on their trucks with no issues and it looks really good. Suppose it depends on what you use your truck for.

Hey Buggy. My concern was fitting it into the building. I think that with the 11X20's , we only have 4 or 5 inches at the stack for clearance. As far as weight, we will have about 10,000 lbs of water on this thing all the time for fighting fire.

Well, the 14.00R-20 tire is listed as 49" tall. I'm sure that is unloaded so I would jack up your truck and measure the tire that is on there, figure the difference and divide by two. This should tell you how much higher the truck would be (close, anyway). If it is too close you could always take a few inches out of the stack. IMHO, it would be worth it!
