A friend has a f-350 dually and he wants to lift it. Are there any wider than stock front wheels availiable. He also knows he has to run a spacer in the rear. Truck is not a worker, just a looker. Thank you.

You can use any wheel/tire combination you'd like for the front wheels, but as far as I know of the dually rear wheels are only avaible in the 6" wide, regardless of the 16", 19.5", and 22.5" wheels.

He thought that they had to be negative offset? or they would stick out too far. Are those the stock wheels and how and the tires wearing? Your truck looks good and I will pass the info to him and show him the pictures.

I took the dually spacers of the front and used srw type wheels, I like the look better.

They are stock wheels and the tires are going on about 45k now. As long as you slow down for cornering so they don't "cup" they'll wear down evenly. Just remeber to rotate the tires every 10-15k, or as soon as you notice it cupping.

Stock dually outside of tires is 94+". Going a little wider is possible, but around NJ they bust humps in the local towns if you obviously exceed 96". You can get away with 102s on the interstates. Also, diesel dually is self inspection here and are subject to on-road inspections, and don't want to give them obvious reason to pull us over. Check your local laws before you go too wide.

I agree. Check with local laws on how wide your vehicle may be. My truck is exactyl 102"s wide which is 8.5'. Luckily, my state law says 8.5' is the max limit, but I can only fit in a few fast food drive throughs. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif

Truck looks good. You're running 2" spacers? What is your stud length? 4" - 5"? By looks of pics you added some extra flares to cover. Were they custom or bought?
