    Almost, 45mm dually with 2.25 nobby nic & 2.4 ardent. Sidewalls stick out further than the tread but as it’s not Rocky around here it’s not been a problem

    Have run 2.35s with 40mm rims. OK no problem.

    Put one on a 50mm rim and didn’t like the way it squared off and there were no lugs projecting at the sides so didn’t proceed.

    About to try Dirt Wizards on 56mm rim. Will report back. (Got to build wheel first 🙂 )
