i have an 07 classic duelly the biggest you can go is 235. I've got about an 1/4 gap between the tires. ALso they can touch at the bottom. The problem is when they touch 360 lots of friction. I haul everyday with my truck and the 3rd set of tires. Been good for me so far.

a 235-85R16 is the biggest on a 16" wheel for duallys.

if they touch then you'll have to drop to a 215-85R16

hopefully sell the wheels, tires, lug nuts and 2'' wheel spacers. hell theres over $110 in lug nuts and the spacers ran me $220. there the gorilla brand and use a special socket to take them off. The 265/75/16 procomp X-mud terrain tires have little over half tread left. and the wheels are the XD dually rockstars. i got a little scratch on the front wheel when the tires got mounted, but you can barely see it since i covered it with some paint. hopefully i can get 1500 obo outa them. The problem is, i need new tires to put on my factories before i sell these.

how much do you want for the spacers? thinking about running 265's on my dually. how much room did you have between the rear tires?

**TYREBOYZ_DEMAXIN** · 03-05-2009, 09:36 AM

wit 2" spacers you'll have plenty of room(i shouldnt say plenty but sufficent)with the 265's duals..
