Default 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.

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.
