My 6 ton trailer uses the Deuce rim and running a 900/20. I would like step up to a 1100/20 or something close. I want a one piece tubeless so I could make the repair myself if need be. Thought there was a thread where it was said that the school bus wheels have the same lug pattern. Anyone know of a wheel

They make 22.5 tubeless wheels in the 6 hole bud bolt pattern. Should run you about $150-200 per wheel you will also need the tires to go with it. An 11r22.5 and 1000x20 have the same OD so you would gain some height from a 9.00x20 but an inch or so shy of the 1100x20.

I will check that out. Yea I want to raise the trailer as much as I can. I know I will with my tractor and the 395's the trailer will never be level but it sure would be nice not to have to unhook to get level when sleeping in it. Tanks.

Yea G your right. There is not a lot of extra room as it is. The trailer is still useable as she sit's on the tractor. Guess when at a rally I would be dropping the trailer so I could go on the Convoy anyway. If I leave them hooked I just have to make sure the AC still has enough down slant so it drains out. Tanks

Have you ever thought about (single)365/80R20s (14.5R20)? They have the same diameter as 11.00R20s; plenty of load capacity and most probably you will never experience a flat again, when mounted on a 1pc tubeless wheel...

(e.g. Mich.XZL = 43" O.D. / 3.5tons per tire @ 85 psi @ 65mph).
