    Default tire size ?

    I would like to see some trucks with a spring over with two leaves taken out of the front to see what i want to go with? Maybe some pics of a 37,38,39.5 tire. thanks.

    Here is a springover with 39.5's with 2 springs out front and rear...both trucks were built by the same guy...different front tires but both the same 39.5 size on the sidewall:

    Note those are 15 inch rims over stock drums as well...something that seems like it wouldnt work but does.

    Looks like the those fit only because the backspacing is so short that the rims don't actually fit over the drums.

    Hey Brute do you know how wide those tires are and what the back spacing is.

    I do not know the backspacing...

    The tires are either 13.5 r 15.5 wide...I think the tan trucks are narrower and the green trucks are wider.

    One guy made both sets of those himself.
