Up to 70 feet. It'll vary dependent on the length of the tractor itself. A Peterbilt 379 EXHD, Kenworth W900L, International 9900 iX, Western Star 4964 EX, etc. tend to be on the high end for wheelbase length, which normally runs 260 - 265 inches. A tractor with a long ICT sleeper (commonly used by moving companies) can be up to 330 inches.

What is the overall length of a tractor trailer rig with a 55 foot trailer?
Well there are no 55 foot trailers. The standard now days are the 53 foot trailers. Some companies have experimented with 57 foot trailers but they could ot be taken east of the Mississippi when I was driving. The total length varies depending on the rig that is pulling the trailer. The combination I believe is usally around 65-70 feet, could be a little less or a little more depending on the rig. Having recently conducted a study in California in hopes of changing the length law in this state, I measured 67 tractor trailer combinations. 57 of those combinations had measurements that fell between 73-75 feet. All combinations were made up of a conventioal tractor and a single 53 foot trailer. Hope this helps you.
