My previous trucks used a 6" rim for the 215-75R-15 tires and to me the sidewalls looked correct on that width. This truck used a 7" rim for that size so it should work OK but now I have an 8" rim and my current tires that look small narrow on that rim to me the tires have a section width of 9.25" so putting a tire with a section width of 8.46" on that 8" wide rim I just thing it might be spreading the bead way to much, would make the total width of the rim wider than the tire and I think that would make problems down the road. This truck and these tires will have to last me the rest of my life. The only 2 sizes that come close in diameter are the 215-75R-15 at 27.7" and the 235-70R-15 at 27.95 diameter. And I do not want to go larger and cut my pulling power. Over half the miles on the truck are pulling a trailer. The truck has the 3.55 axle and going larger diameter would be like putting the 3.21 axle in that they only offered with the manual and not the automatic and I have done way to much clutch work to ever want a stick.

The nuts and bolts of nuts and bolts is an interesting and essential piece of knowledge that applies to our older tractors. An improperly torqued capscrew on an engine head or a shear bolt that is too hard on the driving shaft of a bushog can create havoc and make an expensive and uncalled for repair. Let�s examine the purpose and design of these fasteners in order to ensure their proper use. Fasteners are probably one of the aspects of mechanics that is given the least amount of thought.
