Not sure about all of that but a cubic foot is roughly 7 1/2 gallons (not really sure why I ever wanted to know that, but I ciphered it one time).

I'll bet you could almost get a cubic foot of lead into a tire... Good luck getting it bolted up though.

Al things considered, if you had that much weight in the tires... When you let off the clutch, would it take off and drive or would the tires set still and the front end just come off the ground?
