22.5 X 9" Tires Bolt on
#18
189$ but change as much as you like? Isn 't that just the oppisite of using the tires for there high milage? 400000?
I don 't know....it looks a little to tonka toy for me.....I have 450$ into my 4 alcoas....+100 for lugs.....I can afford a lot of tires before I get to the same cost.
Plus I ve run adapters before.....towing......and I smoked wheel bearings pretty regular.....I even replaced the axles once.
As for ride quality.....isn't it rough enough already? Going to a heavy tire wheel like that with a stiffer / smaller side wall wil ride like a civc on 20's......I have enough spine problems already.

Yes they are 22.5. I do get alot of looks.
But the best part is the ride much better than the 16".
These realy fill up the wheel wells.
I also went to 4:88 gearing which is a great improvment.
I will try to put on a pic of them. OverFueled

Dumbe questions here: WHAT IS A "FLOTATION" wheel or tire? Floating over what? Water? Mud?
Are they going to keep my truck from sinking if I get in a tight spot while icefishing?

I just put a set of Ricksons aluminum 19.5 with goodyear 245x70 g124 tires.They are highly polished from them.I just pulled my 17,000lb 5th wheel to the dunes for the first trip,and the truck felt more stable than my dually I had.They were a little expensive,all said and done I had $2800 into them but definately worth the money.Iwould do it again in a snap.
