Lifted dually tire options

[6.2Blazer]

A guy at my previous work had a Ford and then a Dodge dually with 315/75R16 (35x12.50) tires on the stock rims and pulled larger trailers all of the time, both camper and livestock. Not sure the total miles but I know he wore out one set of tires on both trucks.

For the type of tire it depends on what you use the truck for, just like any other rig. I really doubt the aggressive bias ply tires will ride, handle, and wear that great. If you do want to go that route Interco makes a 34x10.50 LTB or the Q78 TSL which is about a 35x11. I can tell you that you would be lucky to get 15,000 miles out of the LTB's on a fullsize truck.

As for the Power Kings, the ride is actually fantastic... even rides better than my 2wd Suburban. The wear on them is decent, especially on the rear. The handling... who are we kidding, it's a lifted 4x4 crew cab dually. What handling?

I love that last pic, Great Rig, nice trailer & a gorgous tractor that is the right color. 1066?

Yep that's a 1066 Hydro. We use it for the smaller jobs around the farm, like putting up hay.

Nice I like it, We have an older 1066 without ROPS, & a 1086 with a cab. My family does dirt work so they see sheepsfoot & disc, do-all duty.

4" front springs and 3" rear blocks. Tires are 9.00x16, which are roughly a 36".
