73 c30 on 36X15.5X20...possible?

So is it possible to mount those tires on a 2 wheel drive truck with out cutting away half the fender? They would be mounted on the 1st attack single steel wheels. If not possible then what modifications would I have to do to make fit?

One of those tires looks to cost more than that whole truck is worth, I'm not Suzie Orman, but i don't think this is a sound financial decision. And you's gonna have tuh re-engineer the whole front suspension and rear suspension a that truck to make them tars fit. Good luck wit at.

I don't think you can run dually rims on a none dually truck.To fit tires that tall you need to lift the truck,The rear would be easy the front you have two options.One is find a fabtech 2wd lift kit used since they stopped making it,Or get the 88-98 lift spindles and do the swap parts thats needed and new 1 ton springs.
