7 or 8 inch rims for dually?
Re:7 or 8 inch rims for dually?
Also, one other question - has anyone ever used the 3" "dually conversion" spacers between the rear wheels on each side of a stock dually? (in order to space the rims apart and fit wider tires)<br>Chris

Re:7 or 8 inch rims for dually?
What are you trying to do with wide rims and spacers ??....are you trying to put on 33's on the rear if you are just get rims and put on a set of slicks...whats your point of needing wider rims ?? :
Re:7 or 8 inch rims for dually?
I want to fit a set of 37/12.50's, if I get an '03 instead of a 12V to play with. These are really going to be too wide for 6" rims. I'd be getting the dually more for the additional stability while towing than for the additional payload capacity. Thanks.<br>Chris

Well for spending $34-40000 on a new 03 just go buy a class 8 road tractor with super singles on the rear....and a big 500 HP cat with dual 8" stacks...will probably cost you less

Ok I will be the one to ask. Why would you want to lift and put 37" tires on a truck to tow with, makes no sence to me and I am into lifted off-road trucks. ???

I just like 'em big
. I'd probably go with 3" lift up front and maybe 1" in back - not enough to start having to worry about driveline angles or anything. I need aggressive enough tires on it to handle decent mud - primarily getting a 12k lb trailer back through the muck so I can unload the real rigs ;D .<br>Chris
