RE: [MV] singled out M35-speedometer correction

Hi
From past experience with the 1100 duals I also can attest they did not
rub but DID pick up stones between the tires when driven in mud and deep
sandy gravel. These stones sometimes would fly out at road speed and
were dangerous since they were not all caught by the mudflaps. They
also were damaging the tire sidewalls if they remained stuck in there.
I made sure to check in between the tires after any off road work. They
were great on road.

That truck looks real nice with the bigger wheels.

Can anyone say what is the difference in offset between various 6-hole
'deuce' wheels?

This is very interesting, as I've been told the dualled up 1100x20's
would rub and also thay they would not rub. (mine did not, I have 1"
with a load) I think we have a variety of wheels, and it depoends which
you have.

Where do we look on the wheels to determine what part# they are, and
where is the date stamp? How to correlate wheels to trucks?
