20" or 22" Dually Wheels

Cliffs: I need cool large diameter wheels for my dually.

Many of you may be familiar with the 'Crew'd Attitude' truck build by forum member Devillusion.

http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=403109



I bought this truck last winter and shortly after hauled it out to my buddy's shop in Alberta so he could swap a LLY Dmax into it with a ZF-6. The truck is almost ready to roll again.

Next on the list is a new set of wheels. Although I think the wheels it has now suit the truck quite well and I'd be happy to roll with them, I need to get larger ones in order to pass safety inspection. In the event of a flat tire the wheel needs to make contact with the road before any suspension components do. So the 16s need to go and I'm looking for 20s or 22s.

I'm having a hard time finding dually wheels I like in the diameter I need. I've seen those offered by Fuel, Eagle and American Force but I can't envision any of them looking good on this truck. I'd love to find some smooth steelies with baby moons but I'm coming up short in my searches.

I'm hoping someone here has seen something cool that might work and can give me a link on where to find it.

You could go with the 19.5 P/30 step van wheels and keep the same look as the 16's

Or you could also go with the vision aluminum 19.5 wheels I have these on my 68 K/30

Both of those choices look good, but aren't the tires offered for 19.5 wheels harsh riding?

I vote for the 19.5" steelies as well. There's a guy on Instagram (big10garage) running those on his duallie and it looks awesome.

There not to bad if you don't run the recommended 95 psi
