anyone running 46" tires or taller?

[Dannj]

just curious if anyone out there is running military 46's or bigger and has some pics and info on your lift/steering....

the military tires are on 16.5 rims, but your gonna need 6 inches of lift or better, and they run 47x12.50r16.5 on the military hummers btw, good luck

ive never seen a 47 on a 16.5 wheel, ive seen all the xzl,xl,and xml on a 20" rim. i was thinking somewhere around 10" to clear them right....

ahh your looking at the tires on 7 ton's and stuff, i was thinking the hummer tires, yeah there is one guy but i havent seen him post in forever running 20x10 with those xxml or what ever michelin tires you see on those trucks, i have no idea what lift he has, but it is very custom, and some very low gears in his axles


EDIT: sorry i meant 37x12.50R16.5 hummer rims n tires

yea but if you know of a 47" 16.5 tire i wanna see just outta curiosity hahah. i ran 4.10's on my dodge with 44's on the street and it was fine never had a problem...doesent gotta be that low if you dont plan on wheeling the piss out of it.

Anyone that I personally know running 46's or better is some of my cousin in tallahassee and they have like 5 1/2 feet tractor tires one has 2 1/2 ton running gear and the other has 5 ton running gear and the lift on both are fabricated all by themselves I have a picture of one on my old phone I will look for it tomorrow and I have a picture of the other one but I will have to take a picture of it tomorrow too I gotta get some shut eye I gotta be up in 2 hours to go to the diesel drags in Bradenton

yea few of my buddies have 2.5 and 5 ton rears under their truck but they are straight up wood/mud trucks. Im sure my 1 tons can handle it cuz this truck doesent really get wheeled....just drive out to the pits drink a few n head home. im just posting on curiosity
