Only in my dreams do I find rims with such a nice offset and width.
I'm guessing that you have an NTC 300 or something similar. My 292 doesn't weigh anything. You definitely need all the flotation you can get for the weight.
My truck is mostly just for play. My place in Myrtle Point, Oregon is close to the Oregon sand dunes but, I don't see anything but flat sand in the future.
I'll be up on the logging roads poaching feral cattle. I built a BIG underground pit BBq and I need some practice.

They do sell 8.25 X 22.5 blank Aluminum rims on E-bay. I thought about it but, there is far too much offset for the inside dual to clear the spring.
