Are 255/85R16's becoming obsolete?

I run the 255`s on a `96 dually-5-spd. [/QUOTE]

I'd be interested in seeing your results. Did you recalibrate the speedo, after you put the 255's on?

Can you on a '96?

Tool Man,



Did you look closely at the rating of that Super Swamper? It only carries a max inflation of 45psi - less than 2400lbs. capacity!

EEEk no I did not. However is that 2400 DRW?

Ah, crap, the only way is to go into the transmission to do it... . had the same problem on my 97. The dealer told that there is a plastic speedo gear you can change out... . I suppose it's like the TH350/400 or 700R4... I had to do that with my 82 Vette... . it had the wrong speedo gear from the factory, but luckily I'm a packrat and keep junk like that around.
