I just bought a 2022 Ram 3500 Dually with 20k miles. The previous owner told me he had an unfixable nail in a tire the other day and had to replace one of the tires. The tire shop said it wasn't a problem. They used a new tire and the spare to put 2 new tires on the INSIDE rears.
I measured thread everywhere and the 2 front and 2 OUTSIDE rear tires are around 6/32". The 2 INSIDE rear tires are 13/32".
I know mismatching in certain AWD cars could lead to premature wear on truck parts. Since it's a dually (wheels locked together), the 4x4 is basically never used, and the 2 sides are the same..... I figured it's probably "fine" and will just lead to faster wear on the inside one till it matches the rest. That's mostly OK since I would want to change from the OEM Nexens anyways when the others wear out.
I just want to make sure it's not wearing the truck itself!
