i have been looking around for a set for my dually in a mud terrain and cant find to many. toyo, BFG, and swampers is basicly all i can find and then a couple others but there load D and rated for 3000lbs any ideas. i dont tow or haul very often maybe 1 or 2 times a year usually a land scape trailer with atvs or sleds on it and some times an excavator but the trailer load is usually about max 16k. what do you think i have for options?

 

Better be looking for some 2" wheel spacers while your at it.I think you listed about all the tires except for Nitto.Have you considered the 295/75/17?Pretty close to the 35 you mentioned.

 

i run a 10000lb welding truck with dick cepek FCII's of that size and have had no issues

 

Check out 315's instead of 35's.

 

Not 315s or 35s but 305/65/17 BFG ATs are E-rated.

 

from what i can find it doesnt seem to make a differance whether its a 35 or 315 or in between there are alot more 33s but looks like i am going to have to settle for 1 of the 35's i can find thanks for the help

 

The 35s with 17" wheel seems to be an odd duck for E range. If you go to 18" wheel or down to a 33". I run 305/65/17 Extreme AT Procomps, they are 33" and E ranged. I like them a lot but they are not as tall. Check it out http://www.procomptires.com

 

I just put on Nitto Dura Grapplers 285/75r17 or 34x11.50r17 load E. I had to put a 1.5" spacer in but they work great! drove out to Idaho puilling my enclosed (about 6k) and im really happy with them! nice and quiet worked great in the snow too.

 

Did you have to shorten your truck's wheel studs to run te 1.5" spacer? What type of spacer did you run aluminum, steel. I like the look of the Dura Grapplers and everyone who gets them seems happy with them. Do you have a pic of them on your truck?

 

check out the goodyear wrangler MTR's best tire made imo

 

where could i find a set of 18" dually rims do they make them. i would prolly run steal rims just for the fack that you dont have to go back to the tire shop and have them dismount and rotate them

 

or even a set of stock rims or some prices on what to expect. i check ebay but never have any luck. but a set of 18" rims would be nicer

 

Sinbad- yes a very small amount is taken off maybe a 1/4", not even to the threads though.
06dodgedrw- good luck finding those 18's....

 

how is the tread life on the mud grapper. i can get thos's in a load E. any ideas

 

MAYBE 25K mi. & that is MAYBE!!!
