I'm selling my 53 3/4 ton on ebay, and a guy want's to know how wide it is. the auction ends today, and I'm gonna be too busy to go and measure it. I assume he wants to know for trailer reasons. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=4586065313&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT

If tires don't hold air, I'll run down and get new (used) tires from the used tire shop, at buyer's expense.
