Dually tire question?
What size spacer would I need for my back wheels if I ran a set of 285/75's?

i know someone running a 2in spacer and there is more than enough room. you could probably use a 1in or maby even 3/4 if you can find one

The pre 01 rims have less offset than the post 01 rims, so they would take a thicker spacer. A guy around here runs a ford with 305's and no spacers, he has to air them up on the truck.

I run 2" spacers on my truck. I have a good amount of room in between the tires so I have more than enough for hauling a heavy load.

Could I still get a spacer even though I have the dually adapter kit? Isn't that sort of the same thing, somewhat?

Try the late 17" dually wheels with 235/80's - they're 2" wider and over 2" taller that the stock 215/85-16's
