Oh yes. That is what alerted me the inner wheel wasn't on anywhere near enough. I set the spacer on the hub and the ring sat out PASSED THE LUG NUT STUDS. Oopps Something ain't right.

Freightrain Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Ok, have you tried slipping them on backwards to see if they go farther? That would get you a better view of the hub where it was covered up when installed the proper way. 5 hours ago, fxfymn said: Not being a smart ass, but you do have the spacer ring that goes between the wheels off of the hub don't you?

Timmyb Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 I've experienced this before. Pulling old tyres off and putting new ones on... You have to jack it up higher cause there is more rubber on the tyre. Only kidding... Sort of. How easy/hard were they to pull off the truck?

Popular Post fxfymn Posted December 9, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted December 9, 2016 This is a real stretch, but...Any chance the wheels were left in the cold outside air while the truck was in a heated shop? Expanded spiders plus cold shrunk wheels might make a difference. 4 Quote Money, sex, and fire; everybody thinks everyone else is getting more than they are!

ekennedy21 Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 To me it has to be that the rim is crooked and that's what is causing it to bind. In your picture it looks way further in on the top then the bottom. It is important to push in with your foot on the bottom when you slide the tire in. It shouldn't be loose by any means but at the same time it shouldn't be to tight until it runs up on the wedges on the back of the spoke.

Hobert62 Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Hey everybody here is a good sport. Glad it was a simple fix once figured out. I've done a lot of extra head scratching before just to find a simple issue like this. I'm sure most on here have as well. Good work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes with a BFH it is hard to keep it on the subject matter and not go ballistic after having tried everything else.
