Thread: wheels

    Thumbs down wheels

    I have 2 M715,s
    1 I have fitted with a Dana 80 (8 bolt pattern) I carry 2250LBS of tools every day as a mobile Mechanic. I have had built rims out of Baja racing shells , they are 15 " x 14 wide. I keep breaking the bead section of the rim off. I run 44" ground hogs. Does any one know of a company that can build rim shells thicker than .150? Jim Hartley www.pro-mobile.ca

    You are using aluminum rims??? How are you clearing the brakes with a 15" rim???

    I would suggest get some larger diameter steel rims, recentered h1 wheels or something.

    Great picture! Who would think an old ambulance would look so good.

    Willy,
    What color green paint is that? I love it.

    Maybe my eyes are bad, but are those fenders wider than the stock width? If so, I like that idea and would like to see a picture from dead-on front or rear to see the truck's stance. Thanks in advance. -MM

    P.s. Besides, I'm having a heck-of-a-time with the mud thrown all over the sides and mirrors on the truck.
