It is for the rear of my rat rod. I would like to use a 700 or 800 size tire??? Kind of that big tire in back, small tire in front look. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 127 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 127 | you could get the rim widened as well..then you could go as wide as you want... I know a 700 fits the stock rim..
