a 10.5 is a 265 i believe? people have used 12.5 tires on the rims. I am looking for a 35 tall but only a 10 or 10.5 wide? Interco makes a tire but its a mud tire. I would preder an all terrain, any ideas?

I think there's a Nitto tire in the size you're looking for.
Whether it will fit or not, however, is beyond me.

I put some nitto terra graplers on my dually and they look pretty sharp. They are 295/70/17s. I do run a 2" spacer in the back though.

youre looking at a 265/75/16. nitto does have those and so does alot of other companies. i would not put 35's ( 315/75/16) on that wheel. You will get the crowned effect. Youre tire will wear unevenly on the inside and middle. The biggest i have put on a dually is a 285/75/16 , but they started to rub a little on the duals. Customer didnt care, never pulled anything just for show is what he told me. anything in the 265 will work though. good luck

I have 265/75-16 GoodYear street tires on mine now and they don't rub at all. I'm thinkin A/T's here pretty quick and should be fine with the 265's
