Can I put bigger tires on my motorhome?
You can add larger wheels and tires to a trailer as long as you have enough room for the larger size. Larger tires will typically have a higher weight rating. Tires with a higher weight rating will not increase the load carrying capacity of the trailer, so you will still be limited to the weight capacity of the axle.
Can you fit 35s on a stock Ram 3500?
In order to fit 35” tires to a Ram Dually, you’ll need a minimum 2 ” front leveling kit combined with well-engineered hub centric 1/2”steel spacers between the duals, running 35×12.5 tires. The above setup will offer sufficient clearance to prevent rubbing and scrubbing at full lock.
Will 33 inch tires fit a stock GMC Sierra?
You can fit a 33-inch tire without any kits, but you are limited to thin tires only. These thin tires may look unsightly on such a large truck. A suspension kit can help you fit wider and bigger tires. To fit 33-inch tires without the need to trim or cut any parts, you need a two-inch suspension kit.
Can I put bigger tires on my truck without a lift?
Yes, you can. It is possible to fit up to 33” tires in most trucks without needing a lift kit. However, it is possible that you may need to do some modifications like the use of wheel spacers, using leveling kits, adjusting the torsion keys and cutting of fenders.
Can dually tires touch?
A critical safety aspect of dually tires is the spacing of the rear wheels and the distance between the sidewalls of the rear tires. If they deflect too much, either due to underinflation and/or overloading, the tires can touch sidewalls and lead to serious tire damage.
Are spacers on a dually safe?
The recommended minimum spacer size between the rear dually tires is a 1/2″ (1.27cm). This will be safe at maximum load capacity and will prevent any small debris from getting lodged between the rear tires which could result in premature wear and punctures.

What is minimum dual spacing?
Minimum Dual Spacing. Minimum distance from the center of one tire assembly to another on a dual tire axle. Minimum spacing precludes tire rubbing, excessive heat generation, and stone damage (those caught between tires).
Why do trailer tires wear out so fast?
That said, rapid or significantly uneven trailer tire wear can be caused by: Trailer misalignment or bent wheels from hitting curbs, potholes or debris. Not towing level, which puts more weight and strain on one axle. Uneven load management instead of spreading weight evenly to all wheels/tires.
How much clearance do you need for trailer tires?
As a general rule, when your trailer is loaded to it’s full capacity, there should be a minimum clearance of 3 inches between the top of your tire and the underside of your fender. This should give you adequate clearance for potholes and bumps.
Can I put car wheels on my trailer?
I don’t recommend using trailer wheels for vehicles as that is not safe, however you can use vehicle rims on a trailer if they fit properly. If your vehicle wheel/rims fit your trailer hub bolt pattern and have clearance from the frame, body, or fender of your trailer, you can use passenger wheel/rims.
