Irwin,
it would be nice to see the new bed when it is done.
John,
you have the big wheels and they are in good shape. Mine had the 17" slpit rims and I am going to a Chevy 16" rim. I am trying to get up to close to the original diameter. Around here, most places won't work on a split rim and I am not sure my front two are useable anymore.
I haven't heard of that make of tire befoe but I am going to look them up on the net.
Thanks for the information.
