That's what I needed thanks

You might want to check and see that they don't put you over height!
They will be 2 inches taller than your low profile tires .
Other than that you should be ok . -
YES! Check the height change of the 5th wheel putting on those taller tires, many drivers have made convertibles out of trailers by making this change and NOT checking the height change!
-
They may be 2" taller, but that's the diameter difference of the tire. It will only increase the ride height by 1".
Also, be careful if your truck has fenders or any other equipment mounted in close proximity to the tires. If mounting on the steers, make sure the tires can turn all of the way from one side to the other without ever rubbing on anything. -
Fifth wheel 48" max height to vans
-
If you don't mind me asking, what brand are they and what was the the price on the deal ?
-
Contenal 50 each
-
50.00 each? Is there a truck sitting on the other side of the shop on blocks? That sounds like go to jail prices.
anyhow...
Make sure they are all the same size. We have had guys buy tires like that and get a mix of 4 lo-pro and 4 tall rubber and it will destroy your rear end and you end up with bad tires as well.
