Has anyone put stock REBEL wheels on other trims? If you have do they fit stock suspension? if you’ve done it can you please post pictures.

I’m thinking of putting the Rebel wheels on my big horn
 
Several people have done this and I actually have a set that I will be installing onto my Laramie real soon.

I know I’ve seen some pictures of people doing this but I wasn’t interested at that time and now that I am I can’t find anything regarding this lol

Yes I also had Rebel wheels on my Laramie and I liked it lol.
 

They look solid with the white, especially with those drop steps.

Very similar...

Don't have a picture I can post right now, but put them on my 2019 Laramie with stock suspension and have had them on for 4 months or so without issue.. Trimmed the passenger wheel well plastic back a little where it will rub, very easy to do, no obvious to most it was done, and doesn't uncover anything that should be.
 
Here is my after and before with mine. 2019 Laramie, stock suspension. Tire wheel package on it when I got it (used) was actually really good for ride quality as well as traction. However the wheel wells always seemed a little empty and tires seemed a little too "passenger car" for the truck to feel like what I wanted. Factory rebel takeoffs, paid $1000 with 1000 miles on them, had the tires flipped letters in. Only change needed was trimming the passenger front wheel well liner a little to stop the rub from the rebel tires. Run 50 front, 40 rear PSI and rotate every 4k miles. Ride quality is a little rougher than the stock wheels and Michelin LTX tires, road noise is of course more, and MPG went down around 2. It was worth it to me, and expected changes considering tire size and weight, but something to note.

Good note on the ride and mpg...it’s definitely more of a form ride and you will lose some mpg’s...lost even more when I put the 5100’s on up front

Looks great - any leveling kit or lift, or is that stock with just the tire and wheel swap? Do you have the ORP?

Your fuel economy is probably not as bad as you think. The Rebel tires are more than an inch bigger in diameter than your stock Laramie tires were. Which means your odometer and speedometer are now off, as are your mileage calculations. Unless you updated the computer for the new tires size, you're basing your fuel mileage calculations on faulty data.
