    M105A2 Tire Brake & Swap

    Here are the best pics I could find. I believe a thought I had at the time was the sidewall width of the HMMWV setup. The sidewall is a little more rounded than a regular tire.

    M105A2 Tire Brake & Swap

    I only had these old pictures from 4 years ago. Thinking back, I think they were real close to being on the inside of the fender well about an inch. This was after I put the 1" wheel spacers on.
