Cool.... didn't know that mickey had radials... bias has alway been a turn off for me about them, but I always liked their looks. Have to wear out the firestones and get me some.

HOLY CRAP BATMAN...................if you keep these tires inside the body theres not much left for axles and a differential......might not have enough room to sneak a driveshaft between them big tires

thanx guys..the rear end will be about 28 or so inches wide...riding on air..four links..setup.....the tires should just fit in the wheelwell openings..maybe have to radius the wheel well a bit....but am looking to have them inside the body..as i am going for a lowered gasser stance....

I'd like to see pics of those meats on your van, Just to see how far they stick out with the stock rear end. What kind of back spacing do your wheels have???
Guest- Guest
hey savage...the wheels will fit inside the truck and i am going to cut the axle down to about 28 inches or so........the tires themselves are on 14 inch rims and measure about 18 inches wide.....3 one half backspacing on the rims....i put a few pics in my members gallery..check them out.....chow....
