Dually conversion wheels on a factory dually?

Hey guys,

Might have a lead on some rims and tires for my dually that originally came off a dually conversion kit off an 89 W250. The center diameter is spot on, lug diameter is 11/16 so it should work with my 5/8" studs. What should I be aware of? If the 5/8" lugs aren't going to cut it, can I convert to 9/16" easy enough? They are nice looking, 19.5" Alcoas, so I am willing to do a little bit to get them to work if I can. Please let me in on any experience. Thanks a bunch fellahs

-Luke

Why wouldn't the 5/8" studs "cut it"?

haha... IDK, kinda my question!

Seems so many people say our wheels are so unique and don't work and stuff. I was amazed no one chimed in on this! Huh, maybe they will work? Just wondering if anyone with ANY dually conversion experience knows about the wheels vs the stock dually wheels. Doesn't have to be 19.5" wheels...
