Re: can you lay frame with a 15 inch wide rim

A 15" wide wheel will physically fit between the stock frame rail & fleet bedside (I've had 15x15's mounted in that space before) but not by much. You're definitely going to have to narrow the housing & build a different rear suspension w/that 6" back spacing though.

Laying frame though? That's going to be tough as the wheel/tire will have to be tucked in because there will be interference w/the bedside (alot of interference I'm guessing).

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
