Yes we are planning on flat towing it out. Unfortunately, dragging it out isn't an option. And we don't want to mess with the original rims right now as they will need to be cleaned up and painted prior to mounting tires.
I purchased a cheap set of 16" 6 lug wheels and tire rollers yesterday off a '99 Suburban, and have wheel spacers on the way. My concern is the size of the tires. They're 245/75 16s, about 4" larger in diameter than what's on there. Hopefully they'll clear everything enough to get the old boy home.
