2nd Gen 3500 DRW

2000 Dodge 3500 DRW, with 285-75-16, what size spacer is needed...also, are these wheels hubcentric or stud centric? Thanks for any help, Dan.

That may be the case, but I would have to se the 285's on there to tell, I would think they would rub at the widest part...near the bottom especially when loaded...any pics?

No pics he sold the truck in 05...

It was more of a show truck so it didnt see many loads, when he did though they would rub. A 1.5" spacer would be plenty if you tow IMO

Thats not near as bad as I thought it was going to be...

I definitely think the 1.5" hub centric spacer will be in order.
