bigger tires for my dually

does anyone know what the largest tire size i can put on my dually and not have the rear tire rub? not towing like i was now and want to raise the final drive some. 4:11's are a little short for daily driving. in looking for a size that someone has tried or maybe a mud type tire that will fit without wheel spacers

As long as the tire is not wider than 8-9" mounted you should be fine no matter how tall it is.

I think that 255/85r16 fit without a spacer. I am looking at that size in the BFG MT KM2's for the load range E.
