Just thought I would share some pics of my new 2020 Ram Built-to-serve edition with a 2" RC level kit, 35" Nitto Ridge Grapplers (295/65r20) on factory wheels, with no rubbing. The best kicker is that I have 3.21 gears. Can't really feel a difference in power. Don't know if the etorque has anything to do with it.

I have a 20 built to serve in the gator green, and have been wondering what tires to get but I think you sold me on those.can you tell me a little bit more about the lift you put on it I was looking at Bilstein 5100

Beautiful truck, congratulations. Like me, you got both Ram Boxes and MFT (Multi-Function Tailgate) - did you also get BUG (Bed Utility Group) so you got the cargo divider? I am incredibly happy with the 1-2-3 combination of Ram Boxes + MFT + Cargo Divider.

Good luck with your new rig.

BTW, you might be interested in this flag decal:

Thanks! I only have the 2" rough country puck level.

Thanks also!! I did get all three. The bed divider is the coolest thing. Works great. And I already see I never will own a truck without the ram boxes or the split tailgate.

Man that thing is sweet! Makes me wonder if I can fit the same tire on mine...I have the rough country puck leveling kit as well and I know they say the biggest tire you can fit without rubbing is 295/60/r20 but with your truck as proof makes me wanna go with the 65s. Did you adjust your speedo or anything yet for the size difference?

With the 3.21 gears and 35" tires, do you feel the top gears (7 & 8) hunting when at highway speeds over 65 mph? I am trying to decide getting a 3.92 or 3.21 gearing when I order my truck and I am planning to add 35" tires. My worst fear is that the highway mpg will suffer mainly because of hunting when on the highway with slight elevation changes. Thanks

Thanks! My truck has the off road package from the factory so I don't know if that helps. But they definitely fit with the 2" puck.

Not at all. Eco mode still kicks in and everything at slower speeds. I do have the etorque model don't know if that helps at those slower speeds though. My speedometer isn't fixed yet so its hard to see how much mpg I'm losing. Its about 7 mph off.

Did you DIY install or have it done? If DIY how difficult of a job was it?

I had it done. A little shop around the house does them for $299. Hard to beat.

Nice - did they do the tires as well? Or did you order them online? Truck looks incredible, I love the tires and may get some myself.

This is what I was looking for. I just bought a Patriot Blue Built to Serve edition and looking for tire fitment options. So jealous of your ramboxes and tailgate! Great looking truck!

Did you have to do the level kit to clear the 35's or did you just prefer the leveled look?

Bought my wife a grey built to serve and I'm thinking about installing some 35x12.5 Nitto Terra Grappler G2's but I'm reading mixed info on if it'll clear stock height.

Are you keeping the stock rims? A 35/12.5 will fit them but I think you’ll rub due to offset and no level.
I have the same truck and Thursday I’m installing the 2” motofab spacer and new UCA’s. I chose to go with 35/11.5 Ridge grapplers on the stock rims. My brother is running them on his 2015 Sport with stock rims and his does not rub. He is running Bils at 2.8 though.

Thanks for the info. Yeah I’m running the stock 20’s. I very much like the look of stock height trucks with the fender gap filled with rubber. Trying to figure out the max size I can run without level or lift.

I’ve been toying with the idea of spacers to give it a bit more aggressive stance. Also a perk of it allows me to clear some more rubber. Saw a post on here recently about someone saying the stock wheels have cutouts in the inner portion of the wheel that lend well to spacers so I’ll have to read up more on that.
