    Mike,

    What work do they have to do to fit the 365's? Besides the rims and tires, I would assume that they may have to make changes to the hubs and some of the suspension to fit the larger tires and wheels.

    I would think wheel well clearances such as to the inner fender and then around air bags and brake lines would have to be checked and maybe some locations altered. This has to be checked and verified through the entire range of travel.

    I can envision some changes to the geometry of the suspension to move the hub inward because if the hub location remains the same I would expect the tire to rub on the fender when the wheel is turned and the coach is down.

    I would think that the charges were a good indicator that it required more than just changing tires

    I saw Prevost Nashville changing front wheels and tires to the 365's and it took different studs and new hub caps also.

    If our single slide is 17,620 pounds on the front 18,000 pound axle, what do you think this quad slide is pushing?

    Look at that sticker shock

    I'll wait 3 years & probably find it for sale, used for $795000.00.
