The biggest tires I found so far is a Goodyear racing tires. 365/35R-18. Take a 14.5" wide rim, tread width 14.5".

I have one. It's a Craftsman. 5/8" chuck, 10 speeds. Sits on my metal work bench. If I had to do it again. Think I would be looking at a small vertical milling machine. You can do more with it. And it's precision is better.

If you get one. You'll need some accessories. Different types of vises, compound drill slide, some hold downs, parallel bar set, etc.

I wonder what a decent, used bridgeport and collet set is going for.

I have vices covered, 1-2-3 blocks ect. I dont need a mill though, it would really just collect dust and I dont have the space for it.
