  • Tire/Wheel combo issue

    My BIL recently bought a GMC dually and is having some trouble. He bought a set of tires that i guess aren't the normal type of tires. He apparently can't go to a regular tire shop because they can't balance them because of their size, and can't go to the big rig shops because they don't want to mess up the wheels.

    What do people do in that situation? Is there a specialty shop for this? I know i am being vague, but I have no details on the type of tires he bought or the size of the wheels.

    This vague post makes absolutely no sense. Are they 16.5" tires going on a split ring rim?

        Huh... I don't see why a semi shop would refuse to do it. That's pretty straight forward.



        EDIT: It's a super single wheel.

          its a dual rear wheel, not a super single wheel.

          The semi shops said they won't do it because its a passenger vehicle.

            Take the wheels off and place in the back of a different truck and take them to the semi shop.

            Or try another shop until he finds somebody who would like to earn some money.
            .

              13.5 wide is a super single wheel/tire, he's not going to get two of those on each side, if that's what he's trying to do.
