This is more directed towards the larger trucks, Mitsubishi, Unimog, Mann, F550-F650s, Sprinters, and in my case Iveco trucks.
This is what I have come up with, researching the duel vs. super singles for rear wheel set-ups.
Have I got it right? Way off base? Or anything to add?
Anyone that has converted, or has experience with one or both, your insight would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Duel rear tires
Factory set-up (other then Unimog, Mann, Ural, etc) warranty and liability issues if changed?
Greater load capacity with less expensive tires (load can be match with some super singles)
Better flat / blow-out protection
Much cheaper tires / wheels for a given load range
Great selection / availably (depending on wheel size and tread pattern)
Lighter in weight is a benefit for carrying spare(s) and tire changes
Super Singles
Much better mud and sand performance (do to rear wheels following the track of the front wheels)
Better selection for off-road tires (some limited availability because of current government contracts)
Greater ground clearance do to larger size tires in general (factory equipment vehicles are geared accordingly)
Do not pick up rocks between the tires (duel rears can minimize this with a mounted 'rock-pick')
