good luck!
not much available
dodge and goodyear really hosed us with this 17" wheel/tire on a dually
dont get me wrong, theres lots of 17"tires out there
but not many with enough load rating to haul anywhere close to the load capacity of the truck
bfg mud terrains in 285's or 315's and a 2" spacer is about it
be careful about "cheap" spacers
I got some aluminum ones that I am going to return
there is no way that they will ever hold up to heavy loads and vibration
also they dont center the outside duals properly
keep in mind that our rims are hub centering not lug centering
the spacer needs to have a shoulder on it to center the outside dual properly and should be made out of steel
these wimpy aluminum ones WILL crack

I would have rather driven my new truck home on the bare rims than be stuck with these cheap Generals.
