RE: Michelin Load & Inflation Tables
Measuring with a steel tape, my drives show 13.2" spacing. (Since purchasing this coach, 295/80R22.5 LRH tires have been fitted on the 8.25" width wheels. These appear to be the closest in size to the original 12R22.5s supplied with the coach.)

This coach weighs approximately 44,000 lbs, so the LRH tires are sufficient.

Would it be feasible to use a spacer with the 8.25" wheels to increase the spacing? Would changing to the 9" wheels give enough additional spacing? Would longer lugs be required in both cases?

NB: My wheels are Firestone 8.25 x 22.5 inch, marked "7000 LBS max load at 120 PSI cold."
