What tires fit on the stock rims that have agrressive tread?

[jesusgatos]

either/both

 

[res0wc18]

tread percentage? Who is selling them?

 

[jesusgatos]

I just bought some from GL, and 100dollarman had some. Dunno who/where else.

 

[donkdonk]

yeah those will never fit. i need tires around 41-43" overall diameter

With my bob job i only have about maybe six inches between the gas tank and front of the tire.

If you have 6 inches, then 395's will fit. You will have 3-4 inches left. The stock tires are 40" in diameter and the 395's are 46". By far the best looking size for bobbed and/or singled deuces IMO.

 

[frodobaggins]

Yep, 395s should fit.

 

[res0wc18]

ill have to measure to see, but with tires i need to have half the total height gain in a straight line towards the tank right?

395's will fit, i have seen them on quite a few trucks, and they are as big as you can go without a lift and axle relocation

what about Michelin G-20 Pilote XC 15.5/80R20's? will they fit a deuce?

 

[bigelk50]

Mike I am not totally sure, but I think they are too big. I know what your thinking though. hehe

 

[res0wc18]

hey you northwest guys, were is a good place to buy tires? like the ones we have been conversing about?

Correct. If you have 6" now from your stock 40" tire to the tank, the 46" tire will give you 3" left. What kind of bed is on the truck? Ours use the M105 bed and there is 13" of room stock, so 10" with 395's

Yes.

 

[res0wc18]

its the standard m105 setup like everyone has. But mine is different than most.

 

[quarkz]

of your Bobbed Deuce.

 

[spicergear]

Yes.

Yep, they're 46" too.

 

[res0wc18]

Here is one of our trucks with the M105 bed. Plenty of room even with 14.00's and they are 49" tall.

 

[donkdonk]

Another truck with the other style 14.00's

 

[Strykerboy]

that look's good!

hey, if nothing else, those extra 6 inches should give you a little more head room when working on the underside of the vehicle. Er, that would be 3 inches, but still...
