In see this post is a little old but maybe a good place to get a quick answer to a simple question regarding 5 ton wheel / tire upgrades. I just bought some 14.00r20's already mounted on 10 hole wheels. I was lead to believe that these would just bolt up to the M817 Marine Corp dump truck I have. But, I'm confused on the difference between Hemtt and/or "combat" wheels versus 5 ton wheels, stud length, budds, thimbles and a few other terms on which I'm clueless.
Here are links that show pictures of the tire/wheel combos I bought:
2530 - Vehicular Brake, Steering, Axle, Wheel & Tract Components at Government Liquidation
2530 - Vehicular Brake, Steering, Axle, Wheel & Tract Components at Government Liquidation
Are these Hemtt or regular 5 ton wheels. I think (from comparing to some pictures on this post) that they are 5 ton but need confirmation. If so, will they bolt right on with the existing studs and lugnuts? Would I just reverse them from a backspacing standpoint to get them spaced correctly front versus backs? I was lead to believe that was the process when I bought them but this thread has me all confused and scared now.
Experts - please set me straight...
Thanks,
Ross
