P500 Distance between P520's tires

[Terrynm]

I'm expecting my new P520 to arrive next week and I'm planning to build a ramp to load it in my truck. I know that the distance between the outsides of the tires should be 50", but could somebody tell me what the distance is between the insides of the tires? Thanks!

To be safe your ramps should be 18"-24" wide each. A maximum overall width of 60" fits in most full size trucks tailgate openings. So 60-48 = 12" center gap or 60-36= 24" center gap depends upon width or ramp track. Either will work for a P500.

I was going to suggest going wide as well. Don't want to be walking a tight rope with a 1000lb brand new machine.

OEM P500 Width at 50in. Pair 10in wide Tires = 20in (. 50 - 20 = 30 ) approximate inside width.
After market widening products will change inside width ( wheel offset & A-arms . )
14in to 16in width ramps seem to work well & are easy to store. ( length should be directly related to Rise ( truck height)
Vary Important to have a good GRIP Material for the Tires to Grab.
I line everything up & on the ( trailer or truck - for repeat use ) Permanent Marker for ramp location more than 1 vehicle use different colors. ( comes off with WD 40 ) or a dab of paint comes off with thinner.

KEEP CLOSE WATCH only the Left ( drivers side ) the Right will take care of it self ( If tthe SETUP is done Right the 1st. Time )
If We can put these through spots with only 1in.or less clearance at 20mph. ( a 2x4 on Edge Should also work ) oop's ONLY at 20mph though.
