You CAN, however, mount HMMV wheels/tires on 3/4 ton trailers by
mounting them REVERSED--that way the tires do not hit the frame. They do
stick out beyond the wheel wells about 1" or so.
I have a 3/4t trailer with an S-250 Comm Shelter on it and wanted the
"widetrack" for stability.
It works GREAT!
