I have the Alcoa 22.5 wheels on my 2004 3500 2wd dually. The only suspension mod I did was the Daystar two inch leveling kit. I am running Hankook 255 70R X 22.5 F46 tires. They are 36.9 inches tall. I have had them on since January and am very happy with them. Photos in my gallery.

I have 2" leveling kit and 255-70's too. The front tires rub on the mudflaps slightly while turning sometimes.

I run Sumitomo ST908's for a little more traction.

$80-100 is what I'm seeing now. Daystars are much more for a chunk of poly.

I run the 255/70 Sumitomo 908's on a stock suspension and they fit just fine. They might rub under full lock when changing elevation quickly but nothing to worry about. You will LOVE them!!!

How is the ride compared to stock? I have been wanting a set bad because they look killer but was wondering about the ride and balancing? Also didn't I see somewhere that they recommend you balance on the truck? how do you do that?

Thanks Guys,
Snoxracer

D Wiggs your truck is awesome, just make it into a long box dually now!

I was going to, except I already paid big bucks for a new suspension and my Diamonback Tonneau cover.
