I'm planning and figuring and trying to come up with a front axle swap and disc brake conversion for single wheel 1 ton (and 3/4) trucks.

Need to know how wide the edge of tires can be and still look like they fit under the front fenders.
So, how wide is yours, and what does it look like??
How much wider could it be and still look OK?

I already know that the stock 1 ton single wheel FRONT axle measures approximately 58.25" from Wheel Mounting Surface to WMS. I want to know how wide I can get away with.
