Dropped dually tires?
Wondering what size dually tires I need to run with a 5/7 drop? I am running a stock 16" wheel. I was thinking a 225/60/16. I want the same size all the way around. If you have pics, that would be nice too.
Thanks Scotti for the drop parts!!!

Re: Dropped dually tires?
Im running 225 75 16 on mine. With a 225 60 you can probably keep your inner fenders. How did you get a 7" rear drop?

Re: Dropped dually tires?
Im just guesssing what the rear drop will be. Its a 3/4 ton I am converting to 1 ton DRW. I am going to use the 3/4 ton rear springs, but with some springs removed. I have a A.R.T 4K air over leaf setup for the rear.

Re: Dropped dually tires?
maybe things have changed but when i had my dually running on 225/60/16's they were CAR tires, the load ratings weren't optimal for a big heavy dually, but they looked killer.
