I think I tried that many years ago and the inside of the rim rubs on the upper 2 bolts of the axle cover.

I have a set on one of mine. But I have 170 flat top fenders on it. I found the same thing that Gary said. So I put them on opposite sides. They stick out more, but clear the top of the final drives. Ray W.

One of my WD45's had combine wheels when I bought it. They had to be on in the wide stance to clear the final drives. I really didn't like them that wide as it wouldn't fit my trailer. The dealer did pros miser in the spring after snow melt they'd fid the spin outs. Whe I when the back they found them and loaded in my truck. I gave the combine wheels away.

Depends entirely on the wheel's interior shape. These are 14.9-24s, on heavy galvanized steel irrigation boom wheels on my '50 'Schwartz'. Overall height is 52", and with the wheel set facing out, my track width is 90" There's no clearance for valve stems on the inside, but plenty of room for them on the outside.

Ten Amendments, Ten Commandments, and one Golden Rule solve most every problem. Citrus hand-cleaner with Pumice does the rest.

I've got 18.9-26's on my D17, and again, close fit on the inside, but not bad, and no problem with fender interference... can't find photos anywhere, and I dunno why...
