08 F450 single rear wheel

Monsterpower · Dec 14, 2015

:fordoval:Hi, I'm new to this forum. I have an 08 450 that I am wanting to do single rears that would be close to the same width as stock. Has anyone here tried this? Thanks in advance

Stock height?
Does weight rating matter?

It is stock height. I would like to keep the rating but not totally necessary.

So if I understand you, you want to run one stock 225/70r19.5 in the rear in the center of the wheelwell? You could do it with one off steel wheels.

Do a supersingle....

A super single sounds nice. I basically want to have a tire back there that looks as close to stock as possible that gives me towing ability and safe for the track if I ever want to run it down for fun. As for the super single do they come in different sizes? Do you have a choice in tires?

+1 for Supersingle 405's

Anyone have any pics of a 450 with super singles?

Most super singles (wide base) are 22.5. The smallest tire for those is 39" tall. But it appears that Alcoa makes a trailer 19.5 x 14. Michelin has a tire to go with it 445/45r19.5 which looks to be 35". That would look killer on a street truck.. But if you like off road, the brush trucks run super singles. Check out 1st attack and firematic.
