Whats up jason,
From what I can tell the townasty wheels are like what phishninmn said a tag axle or drop axle wheel. There are however a lot of different wheels used on drop axles. Some are full sized wheels, some are a lot smaller, some are more narrow, some use super singles, and some have different offsets. The reason no one other than trevor is making such a wheel as the townasty is its marketed to a niche inside a niche. There's only a small percentage of people who have duallies much less ones that are going to shell out the coin for a set of semis, of that group only a small percentage will run them on lowered or bagged trucks. Especially on squares when you can swap in a Cab and chassis axle for less money than what it take to up grade to the townastys.
Heres a pic of my dually running 22" big hole classics. I will be running all 6 milled semis on nitto 265/35s with a C&C rear.
