Default Tread width

I hate being a pain for asking so many questions . But i need a measurement from center to center of the front tires. I want to setup the ramps on my Quick lift.

We should know the model and year of the car or truck, and if it’s a Merc or a Lincoln. I think some are the same, but the time to find out isn’t when you try to drive on. I’ve got a friend who’s made that mistake.

I just saw your other post for a 56 car. Try this chart, near the bottom.

We worry about the question, and forget the background info. No worries. Going back into your profile and adding your general location helps. Eventually the answer to a question will vary if you’re in Florida or Denver.

Ask away. Unless you’re putting a Chevy motor in it, that’s kind of a stretch here.
