Pics of wider wheel tubs?
Anyone have a pic or two of a set of stock tubs that have been widened? I was looking at mine and trying to imagine how they would bolt to the bed and where the cuts would be. I have a set of 15x10 chrome rally wheels that might be too wide and I dont want to get a set of tires and find they are. I was thinking of just pulling the tubs out for the rest of this year but I don't know yet.

And where do you bolt them up? Did you just drill a hole in the framework of the bed or did you have to make a seperate brace for the bolt to go into?

I was able to splice my wheel wells so that the carriage bolt holes are still evenly spaced, and drilled corresponding holes in the bed wood for the hardware.
