semi tire and wheel change over
 
I was considering putting the semi change over(22"tire and wheels,adapters and lift kit ) on 96-2002 Dodge Dually was wondering if any one had done this and what if any challenges did they have??

I wanted to do this! i had the 8 lug to 10 lug adaptors and we had a set of aluminem rims for our dunptrucks i think it'd look sweet but i didn't have enough room for the tires. they'd rub everywhere. :argh:

You will need a lift to be able to run them. And will still have some rubbing issues on control arms. IMO, 22.5 just don't look good on a puck up. But to each there own

If I were gonna go to a truck tire I'd do 19.5's but I wouldn't go to a truck tire personally. :c:

If I were gonna do this I would check into rather anyone makes 22.5 wheels that bolt up to our trucks, not sure if there is such a thing but that would be the way to go. If you use adapters then you're moving the wheels out away from the hubs and causing extra stress on bearings etc. Otherwise ball joints shocks etc. may wear quicker but you should see 100k+ on a set of tires. :c:
