Tire size??
 
I have a 1988 V30 4x4 dually. It is the cab and chassis model. I am wanting to put some supper swampers on it 34-11.50 like on the "Hillbilly Deluxe" build but looking at my truck with the narrow axle it looks like if I put any bigger tires on it it would rub my springs? I would like to run stock steel wheels. I know you can put spacers between the duals but what about behind the wheel and between the duals? Any suggestions?

I have seen dually guys to Q78s because they are tall and skinny I guess...

here is a non dually guy, just to get an idea of what the q78 looks like:

I know up here its illegal to run spacers between your duals, guys still do it however Might be worth looking into down there.

I'm considering putting on 255/85r16 on my dually…

I'm not sure spacers will be needed between the dually wheels…
