Google or bing it and you'll find what dusky rims will work , but I doubt your existing tires are gonna work , but o may be wrong ... So do a search on Google, etc , then report back what you found out !
first, welcome..
it's not that simple unfortunately.. first the stock rims are pretty narrow for those tires... not even sure you could mount em.. iirc, stocker's are 6" wide.. I run that size tire in a dually setup, but they are custom, widened, rear stock rims.. ...
also in the back, the axle WMS should be the same, but in order to run those tires with stock rims, you'll need a wheel spacer between the rims...
also, you can get dually rims for the back, but your front axle is a SRW, not a DRW axle.. ...
you would need to change over the hubs to a dually hub to run the front dually rims.. or run 2 different rims, like me.. see below, I run DRW out back, and SRW's in the front
and the spring perches are inboarded so the tires don't stick out... springs are custom, under the frame setup, etc..

I'm not sure I understood any of that.
English isn't his 1st language.
Sorry, my English is not perfect.
I knew I would need for my rear wheel spacers and go be hard to do this modofication.
-Ryoken, Very nice truck by the way, pretty dually.
But for mounting equipment as I would like to leave you advise me on what dually wheels sizes please?

Those tires will mount on stock dually wheels.

He probably is using Google Translate... that you type in your language , then pick the language you want to translate it to, and because of differences in sentence structure , etc. things don't come across exactly ... if that makes sense ?

stock are 6", correct? seems awful narrow for a 12.5 tire...
I had them on Big Ugly on 6.25" wide wheels. Ballooned the sidewall but they worked.
That just means they will be harder to pop a bead when you air them down
Poor mans bead lock, fat tire on skinny rim.
Very handy with 16.5's.
I have 15/38.5-15" Boggers on 8" wide wheels right now. I have ran plenty of 12.50 tires on 6.75" wide wheels.
