Just wanted to post a few pictures of the M816 with new tires from sermis. Now I need some for the 5 ton tractor.

I have a set of 16;00 20's on my wrecker. they are to large to use the machine for what it was intended for. they rob a lot of power and will rub quite easy. when we find smaller ones ,these will go on a different toy. the road speed is cool but not worth the limitations.

I too installed the 1600's this weekend on my 818. I do like the extra speed but it's terrible on power now when pulling ANY load. just an empty trailer and it's full throttle all the time and downshifting on ANY grade and down to 45mph. I need to find a way to get more power from the NHC-250.

I love big tires!
FYI, Jatonka sells the boom-operator-seat rain/shade canvas covers, w/bows, that fit both the M816 and M543. He will be at the Gilbert Pa. show with a set.

Bet the neighbors LOVE the added height of the truck....
You do get more friends when you have a wrecker!
