Well the time has finally come, it has been a lot of years, but my Michellins are about to dry rot and still have a ton of tread left... I've always wanted to go up to a 19.5" wheel, but don't want to fork out thousands of dollars to do it.

So what is the best way to take my 98 3500 from 16" to 19.5" without breaking the bank?

 

i have no clue, i do have a question?
is your 3500 a dually?
i have seen single rear tires 3500 listed for sale.

i did a little research on my 03, you want a big back spacing for that generation, around 7" to keep the tires inside the fenders.
