anyone her running 19.5's?

post pics andsay what the advantages/disadvantages are. my dad just bought a 03 K3500 standard cab, SB. it has 118,000mi on the 6.6 and allison. it was hesitating really bad but we changed the filters and it runs great now. we are wanting to get some 19.5s because of there resistance to puncture. as we will be hauling heavy loads and in areas that cleanup is being done. i dont really know what rims are out there that look good so post the pics of your truck with them if you have them.
thanks
Clay

I honestly never thought about changing them over. I own a towing company and specifically wouldn't buy a 2000+ 3500 because of the woosie 16inch rims.

I wonder if it is possible to change over to a 19.5

here is a company that builds an aftermarket 19.5 wheel that will fit the bolt pattern you have now on the truck http://www.aewheel.com/eagle_alloy_wheels.cfm?id=127
