Is it sitting on 16.5 tires, Don?.................If it is, scrap them out and go to 16s.......16.5s are getting really hard to find (trust me, I know)

They're Firestone tires with about 80% tread, and the local Les Schwab carries them in stock. Most all the lowboy trailers we use around here use the same tire.
