My brother just priced it for his Duramax and they told him $100 a wheel.

Interested in this as well. I have a few places that I can get used super singles from but have not had much luck finding a place to shave them down.

I have two friends with duallys that run 37x13.50r22 toyos on 22.5 wheels. One of them is on his second set. Not sayin...just sayin..

If I can get ahold of my cousins lowboy driver I'll ask him. He's from there and goes back as much as he can. He drove trucks there for 30+ years so he might have an idea. If he does have any ideas, I'll let you know

I was just talking to mink about it. he said the same. I'm gonna run a 35/12.50/22 Toyo mt.

but I'm gonna be towing quite a bit. and that kinda scares me.

So your saying that they are running 22" wheels on uncut 22.5 rims?

I have thought about this and thought they would be a b*tch to seat but don't see why they couldn't work.

 

[PTSUPERD]

Yep. Both have lifted duallys.

 

[Vader's Fury]

Hmmm...

Wonder if it would work for super singles as well. I need to get my hands on a set of rims and check some measurements.

 

[B.Warning]

Yep. Both have lifted duallys.

I've heard the same. Do either of them tow anything besides a boat, golf cart, or your stack of cash around tho?

 

[powerstrokin15]

I've been told they only shave 1/4" off all the way around anyways when they're shaved.

Ya only need to remove 1/4 to drop the .5 down to a 22. Really isn't that much material.
