285's and a dually what size spacer?

camoTJ · 04-12-2008, 12:35 PM

I am going to 285s on my truck here soon and was wondering what the smallest spacer I can get away with is? I want to keep the tires under the fenders if at all possible? Also if any of you have some pics of duallys on 285s that would be great

you dont need a spacer if you go with the 285 s. a friend has them and it looks good but he does have a leveling kit for the front.:thumbsup

thats what I was looking for thanks! the only time I drive the truck my jeep and trailer are hooked to it. I was hoping I could get away with just a 1/2" spacer, looks like I can.
