    MAX TIRE SIZE?

    Hey y'all. Looking for some new tires for my M62 Wrecker. Found a deal on 10 new 12.00R20, do you all think that those will fit? I have the original 11.00R20 on it at the moment. More worried about the gap between the tires on the duals when under a load. Thanks for any info.
