cheap 19.5 dually wheels (maybe)

dont the new dodge 4500 and 5500 series truck come stock with 19.5's and wouldnt they bolt right up to a 3500? same bolt pattern arent they? steel wheels are fine with me and I'm sure there are people out there who are buying these trucks and installing fancy wheels and tires on them . anyone have a set or know where there is a set of take offs? or maybe a set off of a wrecked truck? $$$$????

Actually they are using the same bolt pattern as the F450/F550, so I guess they are using the same wheel. Due to the fact that these are the only vehicles using them, the production is lower than a standard one ton. Due to supply and demand, they are still not cheap. I just wish Dodge put longer studs on them so we could sell aluminums. But the oems don't like the aftermarket much these days.

well why is it that no one makes like a 1/4 inch spacer to go between the duals of a dodge so that we could run some taller tire sizes with stock wheel studs? it wouldnt take much of a spacer would it? I just want tall skinny tires with a highway rib type tread.

Why aren't more people making 8 lug 19.5 wheels? Make them in both bud and single design.
