Dually Tire Upgrade? Suggestions?

[Moroney167]

Need to find a tire for 08 ExCab Longbed dually. Stricktly tow vehicle on highway. But deff want somethign a little more aggressive than the crap stock tire. Also would like to go bigger without new rims. What size can we put on truck to keep function. We will be putting leveling kit in front of 2 or so inches to level truck out. What fits on rear rims so nothing touches. Im not familiar with dually stuff so all info I can get the better. Helping friend. Wants a nicer looking tire meaning aggressive. Loved BFgoodrich AT but way to much for it. And of course needs to be e load tire.

Thanks so much,

And pics always help if someone did what were tryin to do!

The issues with going wider is the chance of the tire rubbing, and the rim ridth issue. A wider tire will bow out in the middle due the rim being too narrow.

I went from the stock 245/75/17 to 265/70/17 with only a 1/2 spacer. all I needed. I put 18,000 on these and did not touch. these are wrangler authority a/t load range E 10 ply.

Yeah If you look at the middle pic real close, the rim is in set. never seen this on a tire before. the side walls are really out past the rims. I'm only running 55 PSI in them. they ride good. The best part, bought all 7 from wally world for 1485.
