That's a very fancy work truck. Love the color!

Thanks! Took me 6 months to find one optioned the way I wanted in that color. They were all white or black.



Mark13, I can't stress enough how bad the Toyo M608's were on my truck, believe it or not, they even SMELLED bad. You could literally smell them from 15 feet away even two months after install. Obviously you might have better luck, but if you can swing the extra $$$ for the Michelins, DO IT.

Love my XDS2 as well, likely going the same route again.

Do you have a side profile shot of the 245's? Not sure if they will fill out the wheel wells enough for me.

Thanks and looks good!

Just upgraded the 225 Conti HSR's to a 245 traction tire. Tried the Toyo M608z first. That was an epic 2 month long failure. About the only thing I liked was the way they looked, and I'm a huge fan of Toyo. Tires bounced and shook, wicked tread squirm, and very noisy. At one point on a test drive, the tire shop manager even commented on how difficult it was to keep the truck in one lane.

So after 4 attempts at rebalancing, replacing 2 defective tires, destroying and then replacing my two front rims, the tire shop manager called his corporate office, and decided the Toyo's weren't ever going to run smooth, and we swapped for 245 Michelin XDS2's.

Like night and day. Smooth, quiet, minimal squirm, and great traction. I still like the look of the Toyo tread pattern better, but not enough to ruin the ride of my truck. Hope this helps others looking to upgrade their 19.5" tires.

I liked my 20's, but I love my 22's.

HPGod I've been thinking about doing 285/55r22s on my 450 do they stick out past the dually fenders much I want to try and keep them under the fenders as much as possible

All depends on the offset you choose. You can get away with the smallest offset option for the rear outers (on this particular KMC wheel) and still have clearance between the duals. Mine stick out about an inch.

I think forces are all 8.25 deep for the duallys I might end up going 275/65r20 to try and keep them under the fender I like the look of the 22s but then you have to go 285 minimum I think it's like 11" wide compaired to 11.8 wide.

I'm slightly lifted. 2.5/2". Depth, you mean concavity? If so I haven't measured, but I could.
I used to run 295 60 20's previously on 7.5 Eagle wheels. They were just a hair over flush. Tucked in about .85" more than these and had more room between the duals. (Inner was tucked in nicely) Eagle nailed the offsets on their 20's

Here's another '16 with the tow boss pkg. Picked it up about 2 months ago and love this truck. Needs tint and some wheels/tires now.

good looking rig.. I'm about to trade my 16 F350 Platinum SRW (3.55's) for this exact truck this week! Anxious to get back into a dually, and even more so with the 4.30 gears!!
