Please read! Dually tall/skinny tire demand
Hey everyone this isn't actually my first post just a new username and email. Had to cancel old email and was time for a username change. Anyways to the post.
I am throwing this out there to get interest in the demand for a tall but skinny tire for use on dually rims without spacers specifically OE 17" dually rims. I have been in contact with Mickey Thompson and they seem very interested in the idea of making such a tire. They mention doing a 235/95R17 or (35x9.50r17) in either there STZ or ATZP3. If the demand is there of course and from what I have been reading people should be interested in this, a great alternative to running commercial tires or running spacers. So if your interested post up and I will send this link over to Mickey Thompson so they can see. |
I would like to see a 37x11.50x17. 35x9.50 is too skinny. swamper makes a 35x10.50x17 you can run that tires as duals with no spacer. they are close but they don't rub.

Ya the reason for going this way is to not have to run a m/t tire, or change tires every oil change as such with the swamper. The reason for going 9.5 is so it can play not all the factory dually rim widths well.

Cooper is releasing the Discoverer S/T Maxx in LT255/80R17 and LT255/85R16. They are both 32.8" tall and 10.2" wide and are able to be mounted on a 6.5" wide wheel. We don't have them in stock yet, Cooper says they are in production now though and should be available in about 3-5 weeks.
