you can fit a 35-12.50 tire on a 6.5 wide dually wheel is it recommended NO but possible just some things to keep in mind if you do..you will spacers which has been mentioned,keep the PSI regulated since to much air will wear the center of the tires rather quickly and last but not least keep enough air in them that its safe.
