single wheel

hey guys, i was sitting in the truck waiting on the wife and noticed a gm dullie sitting in the parking space in front of me. on the rear it had only one tire on each side.
it must of had a spacer behind the rim to make it work. it looked pretty good that way.
i bet if you used a wide rim and a wide tire on the back it would look real good.

My old man had a 78 3+3 Camper Special Chevy Dually and he use to do that in order to not have to replace 6 tires all the time. All he did was remove the outer wheel on the rear and run the truck that way. As long as you are not hauling any weight it's no big deal.

Popular with the GM custom crowd back in the 90's. The trucks are called 'Phantom Duallies'.
