I'll bet my left one, before measuring my 2 vehicles, that the spring mount for the 130 is wider than the 110,
Big dejavue for me as I had the same problem, not realizing that the 110 I bought second hand had a 130 rear end grafted over. I'm fairly sure it also had the bigger ( says he checking the left one) spring mounts grafted as well.
I run 255's on 7" black aftermarket rims with 113mm space.
No worries, so the 4mm makes enough difference. I had real issues with Rangie alloys that are 138mm. Could smell the rubber:o
Edit. I just measured both, 130 is 24 cm 110 is 20 cm. That's your problem..
What and where are you measuring that's is giving you 240 and 200mm ???Quote:

Ok, so you have a 1985 custom built 110 extra cab with some 130 parts and your spring perches are 240mm wide from the outside of the chassis......and thats my problem also
hahaha :D funny stuff
Nope, mine are 200mm. I also can not imagine why the 130 spring perches would be an extra 40mm wide. I can imagine 4-6mm for some extra strengthening, plate etc, but not 40mm?? I was under the impression that the 130 share the same coil dia and wheel track (basic axle assembly sans thicker tube) as a 110? If so how can they fit an extra 40mm width in the spring perch?
Could it be that your custom 110 has something done to it that is not stock?
Maybe a 130 owner could measure there rear spring pearches and report back?
There are a couple of simple reasons my tyres rub and its not something seriously wrong, nore is it rocket surgery :)
OK, Sorry for trying to help.:angry:
Did you notice the BIG smiley I had in my txt??? :DQuote:

I said from the outset that my County was custom built.
meh, you were fairly confident it was "my problem" without ever laying eyes on my truck ;)Quote:

Even if it is only 4mm, it would not be enough to make a difference, my tyres would still rub on either. (especially since they already are on the narrower of the two ;) )
I still stand by my original comment that if the OP is going to buy new rims to suit the 255/85R16, that the "Wolf", "130" or "HD steel wheel" not the best option, nore even a good one. IMO :)
And Im still wanting to hear how, or what is "seriously wrong" with my truck :angel:
My 265/75r16s did the same thing on Boost rims - I don't think the side biters help!Quote:
