Can you guys post some pics of any brand 265/70-17 tires mounted on a dually without spacers...I saw some pics of a black 2004.5 dually with 265 Coopers I think, but can't seem to find it anymore in the search. I am trying to get an idea of what they look like.

 

I'm planning on doing the same thing once these tires are worn out...... I'd like to see some pics too....

 

Here's a pic of bigd6.6's 2006 Dodge RAM 3500 DRW with some LT265/70R17 Mastercraft Courser C/T's :



Nice truck, but ol' Derrick is a little tough on transmissions.

I either want to run 265's or 285's. I heard with weight and without spacers, they will rub. ANyone have any pics of 285's?

 

You may have a better response over in the 2nd GEN Forums.

 

Sorry, I will change my sig

 

285s will rub

 

Does anyone else have any more pictures? I want to make sure that the 265-70-17 will not rub in the back before I put them on....Does anyone have experience with the 265-70-17 on the back and did they rub??

Thanks
Shayne

 

I know some that have 265s on their 3rd gens. They do rub a little when loaded but they dont have any problems, even when loaded heavily

 

here is some 285s on W.F.O truck. sorry about the poor pics.
The 285s do not rub and had no problems with mounting them. You can barely fit a pen between the rear duallys but they fit fine

 

I stand corrected, I thought surely with a heavy load 285s would be all over each other. I have seen fords with em and with the truck empty they were still smashed together.

 

285/70/17 Nitto Terra Grapplers. No rubbing at all.

 

Tx, even loaded you cant get the rears to touch?

I got a friend with an 06 dually that needs tires, he want the biggest possible without spacers but he hauls heavy weekly if not daily so he can t have any rubbin.

 

That's nice

 

I only tow using the hitch and only about 4000 lbs. THe tires are inflated to about 80psi to keep them from touching. I can not vouch for any heavy towing.

These tires a E rated 10 ply. You will not find many 10 ply this size.
