Mickey Tompson tire question Sportsman S/R Radial

[muthstryker]

hey guys, on the killer 66 nova they built they used a 29/18.5/20 tire on a 20x15 wheel. Well the wheel i want only goes up to a 20x14 wheel. do you guys think this tire would possibly be fit??

thanks

I believe they have 29/16/20 now.

They have firm sidewalls, I doubt it would seat

[muthstryker]

i wonder if i could have the wheels widen to 15 inches.. i want to get the iforged classics 3 peice, so maybe it would work out??

[TwinSting]

it will work on a 14" wide just fine.

[muthstryker]

ya i think i will have to buy the wheels, then the tires and try to have the tires mounted on the 14, if not i will send the wheels out to weldcraft to have them widened.

Muthstryker- here is the 29x16x20 on a 20x12 rim and it has no problems. You can easily put the bigger ones on 13 or 14 inch wide wheels. I have personally done it!

That is one wicked machine, very impressive. I can just stare at that all day.

Those pics of that vette were nice. I am looking to set up my 85 camaro with MT Sportsman S/R's. I am having the rear end back halfed with a tri 4 link thru Art Morrison. They told me the widest tire I could get underneath the car was 14 inches. I want at 15 to 16 wide.

Is there another company that could make the tri 4 link, or should I just go with a 3 link or maybe a truck arm.

The car is not going to be in any organized drag racing or touring either.
But, I would like the car to handle corners, and at the least launch at a light decently. I am willing to compromise both as long as neither side of the spectrum is less than good. I will even go with satisfactory.

Thanks
