Spacing for dually wheels

[fordfreak4life]

How much spacer would it require for me to run a 265 75 16 or possibly a 285 75 16?

i have a 2.5'' spacer in mine and i can reach my arm between 285 75 16s, up to my elbow anyway.

I have a 2" spacer(I think) and run 315/75s. There is still plenty of gap.

Run some 15.50's!

haha, that would look pretty badass if i had a 10" lift bro..... you guys sell spacers jap?

 

[JAP]

Nah. I don't think so.

6" and 315s on factory alcoas with spacers is one of the toughest looks I know of on a Dually. Just saying.

i ordered 285's then called them and backed out.... i think im going to go ahead n do 35's.... you guys think that will look alright with the old goodyear wrangler MTR's? im going to give the treadwrights a shot after testing them on our rock crawler.. ill be running the same tread pattern as the crawler

Tread rites are bad ass for longevity. I have ran a couple sets of them.

 

[PTSUPERD]

35s will be sweet Dillon. Assuming you can clear them.

I'll be going with them for some 35's on my dually some day. You can't beat the price of them since your stuck buying 6!

Any dually on 315's looks sexy!

 

[lincolnlocker]

average price for a tire is only 100$ at treadwright..... i got 50k out of the last set i had on my f150 when i sold it it still had 1/8th inch of tread on it.... those were the howler mt.. only bad part with them now is that they know its illegal to run retreads on a regular pickup so you have to convince them they are for off road use only in michigan....

 

[TrailerHauler]

The only ****ty part about them is their wait. The backorder wait sucks.

 

[lincolnlocker]

Yeah! Have to order way in advance.

Hey Dillon, you ever get treadwrights? I will need a set of tires for the new rig before winter and don't feel like dropping over a grand on rubber like last time...I wish the new rig had 16" rims so I could run my 80% KM2s :cursing:

 

[fordfreak4life]

my dad just ordered a set last week..ill let you know byron... i haven't ordered mine yet... trying to get ahead on some payments so ill run my current tires till there shot

 

[HaysKSFirefighter]

Sounds good...let me know how they run and fit. I will probably get the same ones. I've heard lots of good things about em and saving the $$ wouldn't hurt either.

I agree, or you should be able to fit them with a leveling kit and maybe a little bit larger block in the rear. I know quite a few running this set up. Throw a 2" spacer between the back two an your set.

This is my buddy's old truck on 4" lift and 35's with (I think) 2" spacer on stock wheels

 

[Daryl@TDP]

Badass looking dually there. Love them with 315s. That would be the least amount of tire I'd have on one.
