Here is my experience with the Continental MPT81, Goodyear G275 and Michelin XZLs. I have not tried the Petlas or Pirelli options. The Continentals cupped very badly after about 10k on a new truck so no worn components.

Hello, It’s been a long time since I posted but I’ve been busy with various camper builds. I finally settled on a platform I’ll be happy with for a while I think. My very enthusiastic teenage nephew and cousin said I needed a youtube channel so… they made one and will be posting for me. Not...

Very nice. I can live with that.

The continentals are awful. They started off bad and after 10k miles I was reading 105 decibels in the cab despite extensive sound proofing. I have some XZLs on the way.

I briefly had a 4500 on those 37x11.5 nittos. Worked great with my camper setup at about 16k. I had stazworks wheels. 98” wide in the rear.

Looking good! I sold my 4500 and have a 5500 that looks very similar to yours now. Stazworks is a couple hours from me and John gave me a tour last summer. I don’t think they routinely modify mrap wheels any more. Their 2 piece are milled from forged blocks of aluminum in house. He told me...

You will find a some rated for 3750, a couple at 3970 and not a much for more than that.

Thanks. Can you message me? It says I can’t message you.

Still for sale?

Just bought the truck with these on so haven’t ordered any yet. I do see 2 new ones on eBay for 575 for both depending on where you are.

Ram 5500

Running the MPT 81 now. Not a daily driver but could be with a smaller truck… I measure 38.6 at 40 psi. Set my aev snap speedometer setting to that and right on compared to gps. Do it.

Such a great build! Awesome work and nice to meet you.

Nitto ridge grapplers. 37x12.5 front. 37x11.5 rear.

I don’t know the specifics on a 3500 but you will not have the wide front axle, you will have an 8 bolt wheel and a ton more aftermarket options. I may be wrong but if you want a singles, don’t get a 3500 dually and then run singles. Just get a 3500 SRW…. Going to a 45/5500 is the way I went but...

I would say 91” is minimum for ram. I’ve not seen dbl design or buckstop in person but looking at pictures of the wheel lip, they don’t tuck in any further than my narrow Stazworks setup. Here was my 4500 with the 91 wide setup mounted. The 93” are strapped on the back.

There are only a handful of companies that build the conversion. I have first hand experience with both stazworks setups. They can do a square setup for ram 45/5500 where both front and rear match width at 93” wide. Obviously very positive offset in front, flip and very negative in back. Or...

What is your vehicle weight?

As far as I’ve read, the only difference in 4500 vs 5500 is an extra leaf, 3k higher payload and availability of the 4.89 gears in the 5500.
