19.5's on a Stock 8 lug dually

muchado · Jan 16, 2008

ya there's 3 of them in KC that I know of... two are friends of friends and the other one randomly rolled up as miles and I are rollin outta 'nitas and Miles exclaims "I'M JEAAAALOUS"

22.5's are pure baller status....... mike george and Brian Cole's dirty-max's look bad-ass with that setup... Dan DuBose(you know, the guy that did my toob :flipoff1:

) has a good lookin F350 on dub duece and a haff's

actually bones, if you are talking about the crew cab that was blacked out, that was a guy from Pitt, Chaz pursell that had a supercharged 8.1, train horn and 22.5's all ballered out like a muh fugger. On the weight, I am sure that the tie rods/pitman/idler arms on chev's hate them. Dodge has a standard tie rod and drag link setup. can't see it being too bad

if so you just use the tapering tool I have and take it out to 1 ton chev TRE size and put one of 100 tie rods I have laying around on laughing

that's a little on the light side when my 10 ply 16's are rated at 2880 per tire. I think the 19.5 tires are somewhere around 4K rating and the wheels are 2600 lbs rated?

Concerns me as well. But I'd love it if I could run a 19.5 without an adapter if I every stepped to a dually. I have seen and heard about too many adapter failures.

Rob are any of those guys stock height that you know of?
Bones, yeah you'd have to get the pitman & idler arm supports for chevy steering, I think the chevy would puke pitmans faster than mine with 35's.

The blacked out CC I was referring to was always up north near my neighborhood.

I wish I was cool

I haven't seen Cole's but Mike George is straight ganster with that setup

blacksheep10 · Jan 16, 2008

Is that the new white d-max lifted 6"s with 22.5's?

blacksheep10 · Jan 16, 2008

luke called me on the American Eagle prices,

very very cheap compared to alternatives. but its still a 6" rim with a 2600lb load cap.

BamaTJ · Jan 16, 2008

This is Mike George's

Post up pics of Brian's setup

blacksheep10 · Jan 16, 2008

there is a pic on someone's myspace page and damn if I can remember who now. its sessay as hell.

I dont like that at all. Too much tire for the wheelwell, the rears are outside the dual fender. It just looks like bad fitament.
Maybe lifted 2"s and the rear narrowed 2"s per side.

Dont get me wrong, I'd kill for the truck, just not the tire/wheel combo on it now.

You fawkers can find fault with anything. That would be a bad ass 50k truck if the tires didn't stick out of the wheel well :flipoff1:

That thing is bad ass, I would give my left nut to drive it. I am sure Cole's is even more badass. Those guys role deep

Wyatt what is wrong with this one?

blacksheep10 · Jan 16, 2008

not finding fault as much as pointing out the obvious. it need 4" less tire or 4" more lift, and that could be done with going to 22.5's, not 24.5's. Them rimz is BIG A simple 22.5 with that lift would have been pimp fo sho

DAMN! Can't hide money is right!

Nothing, I dig the chassis trucks. I just have no need for one or where to park one.

OHHHHHH so Mike Georges are 24.5s? I was thinking they were 22.5s? Dont you still end up with the same width issue even on the 22.5?

And yes I fully concour that a 24.5 is way to big for any non-commercial truck.
