  • Ah! Dually! My experience is with single wheel axles.

    Spec sheet for your rig states it's a 6.75" rim width for a 245/70Rx19.5 tire. Offset is 5.50". However, it also states it's a 10 lug for the 19.5 and 8 lug for the 22.5" wheel.

    I'd be sure you have the right wheels on there to begin with. If you are running 19.5's on 8 lug, there could be a safety issue.

    Found info here on page 15;

    It's a 2017, but I don't think the wheel specs would have changed.
  • It's not as simple as merely getting a 19.5" steel wheel. You need to consider it's offset for example, so it will clear brakes, wheel well, etc. Post what rig you are needing the wheel for.
