    What's the stock size? I'm not one for mods like that because they look cool. Looking cool tends to bite you in the arse later. That and they HAVE to be load range E. This isn't a 1500 which is kinda like nobody cares


    2003- 3500 RWD Automatic.
    S & B intake, BD Intercooler, Pusher Air Horn, MM3 Double R Tuning, Turbo Timer, electric Flex-a-lite fans, FASS 95,
    50 HP tips, upgrade to 351 turbo, 3.42 gears, Twin air compressors, air bags, Remote dual oil filters, Hellwig sway bar, Front Winch. Home made Fuel Heater, BD Exhaust brake with Torque Lock. Tons of TLC

    Not looking for the “cool” factor just wanting more contact on the floor. And yes 3500s are 10ply

    Forgive me. I see this stuff all the time.

    Your response was level headed. Thanks. I thought the tire size on the 3500 was larger?

    What's the height diff between the two sizes and stock, if different? I gather you're asking about the width clearance.

    I'm not a big one for lifts either. Whenever anyone posts about a lift, the forum runs and hides. LOL Allota arses have been burned with lifts.

    Ha ha no worries brother. The 265s are and an inch wider than stock. The 245s are about half an inch wider and surprisingly they are both a little shorter than stock

    That makes no sense at all. How a tar 2 sizes smaller and 10% wider is almost the same height.
