It had 8.00x17,5 bias tires.
will the wider profile of 8Rx17.5 rub with the stock wheel offset?
Anybody have experence here? | | | | | Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 5,152 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 5,152 | I would question whether your bias ply type wheels will mount radials. Have you asked your tire shop?
I have no experience with the 3/4-ton dually trucks aside from seeing one or two and being surprised they were built.

It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble... | | | | | Joined: May 2005 Posts: 8,878 . | | . Joined: May 2005 Posts: 8,878 | If you already have 17.5" wheels likely it'll work.
Check with your tire shop before buying the tires.
I too am surprised about 3/4 ton dual wheel trucks, is your setup original?

I can't speak to this specific truck, but duals were an option on a Task Force 3/4-ton. I researched it up after seeing one at a swap meet a while back.
