Isn't there a clearance problem with the dual axles? On my 5 ton the axles
are spread 54" but the tires are about 53", leaving about 1-2" in between
them. It seems a little close for comfort. You don't have any problems at
speed? Or in the muck? I understand they use the same rim as the 14.00 x
20.
