235's on a 96 dually?
Has anyone put 235/85x16's on a 96 dually? I'd like the bigger tire for the better weight rating. If you have pictures of the space between the tires, that would be nice. Would really like the bigger tire but don't want to buy them and find out they don't fit. Looking to buy tires in the next couple of weeks. Thanks for any help.

I did that to my 97 to help run lower RPM at higher speeds. No problems what so ever, hauled heavy

Just wanted to confirm also...I'm running 235x85x16 on my dually...No problem..[roll]

Well I guess they'll work, I just didn't want to spend the money on new tires and have them rub. I'll be getting the 235's in a couple of weeks and write back with the out come. Thanks for the info.

Back to your other question...I hauled a full load of scrap steel in my box.....the weight was 3,200 lbs...The rear duallies had alot of space between the tires.. You should be ok with 4,000 lbs..

Cooper has been good for my hauling uses. They make a Mastercraft that I am running right now, and love'em.If you get any rub problems just put a 1/4" spacer between the wheels. But I never had problems with 235/85/16s on mine.

Still undecided yet, I've always used Michelin but the last 2 sets the sidewalls have cracked terribly, so I think I'm going with something a little less expensive, thinking about Kumho or Cooper?
