315/70/17's on an 08 Mega Dually

Haven't seen one on here yet and thought I would put up some pics of mine with some Nitto Dune Grapplers on it.

Dang it boy! That looks really good! I assume you used 2 inch spacers? I just bought a set and will be buying tires when I get home in a couple weeks! That looks really good!

They are 2.5" spacers. They were only $5 more than the 2" so I got them instead. I also had to put .5" behind the inside wheel.

Looks really good bro. I am wanting to do the same thing but will I need the .5 spacer behind the rear like you are talking about?

I guess it would depend on the tire. The touched the springs with nothing. To close for comfort with just .25". I could have got by with just one but I like to play it safe so I put 2 1/4 spacers in there.

You know thats the one thing that I haven't even payed any attention to. Pulled with it twice though and they didn't budge at 60 psi so they are D's or E's.
