2019-2022 Dually largest oversized tire on stock wheels/truck?

[MountainGoat]

I am not a fan of the Nexen tires on my 2021, so when my 2022 comes in I think I would like to oversize the tires with a BFG AT KO2 version that would visually fill the wheel wells better. The OEM tire sizes just looks funny to me, it looks to small.

So what can can I do while doing no lift, no level, no spacers while maintaining the OEM alloy alcoa wheels?

I run a 255-80-17 on my stock wheels. There is a 255-85 available but they're Mickey Thompsons. They claim a 50,000 mile warranty but I've never met anyone who actually got that. The 255-80's are 33.1 inches tall and only 10 inches wide. Only problem is that places like Americas tire or Discount Tire will not install them on your stock wheels.

After all the reading I've done it really seems like the 255-80 is the best option for an E rated tire. I haven't seen them in person on a truck so i suppose that's why i am hesitant wanted something just a smidge taller. The 255-85 would be nice but like you say micky Thompson is the only option and they seem to be rare in canada here. I think i am going to pull the trigger on some 255-80-17 Toyo at3's. I Think they'll still look good, and I have the longer studs and 1/2" spacer which i think will also help. I really wanted to go 285-75-17 but its hard to get a straight answer, some say 1/4-1/2" spacer is lots, and some say 1.5-2".

Well, i decided to pull the trigger on the "known" option so went with some 255-80R17 toyo AT3's. You fellas were right! I have to say that pictures dont really do them justice in regards to the massive difference they actually make visually versus stock. As far as i am concerned they fit amazing, they aren't crowned. I have about 4000LBS worth of deck/equipment and i still have a heavy 3/4" between the tires at the bulge. I am not sure running even a 1/2" spacer is necessary. It would be really nice though, if some other manufacturer's stepped up and made a 255-85-17 to get into that 34" tire. But i am glad i made the swap to this size, looks so much better than stock.

Got a new tire size for the stock wheels boys. Kenda Klever in 35x10.5r17. I think they look amazing!

I added these along with a Carli 2.5" level, some 2" rear blocks and airbag spacers, and Bilstein 5160 reservoir shocks up front with 5100s in the rear.

Completely transformed the truck. LOVE IT.













Here they are with no rear spacer.





I didn't like it so I added a .25" spacer and now im comfortable with it.








Did you have to cut the studs since only a 1/4" spacer was used in the rear ?
