this is really what i was afraid of, as much as i like the look of the 20s the tires and tire selection are just not for me, i want to buy offroad tires but $350-$450 per tire is just not for me when it comes to my daily driven tires

Go to 22.5" or 24.5" Alcoa's

About a year ago, when I was living in South Florida, I went to this truck place in Miami, that made adapters for semi truck wheels for the actual 22.5" and 24.5" semi truck wheels to fit One Ton Duallies... There were several pickups on the road in the area, a few F350 Ford Duallies and 3500 Dodge Duallies outfitted this way and they looked fantastic! The inner wheel on the rear was steel. They used a soft compond tire, and they claimed that you don't have to rotate them and they go for 100,000 miles... if anyone is interested, I will have to figure out if I kept any of the info... I was going to buy a set and put them on my 04.5' Dodge Dually at the time, but didn't want to pay the big bucks...

this place sells the adapters for dualleys and SRW and they also sell wheels but the tires are the low profile ones for that street truck look but i would just buy the wheels and then buy some tires from rickson or my local truck tire place.
