That's all personal preference. I think 35s are fine, although 37s really do set it off.
35s are fine on a leveling kit . I guess if your into wide wheels and negative offset you don't have a choice. Except maybe to do some serious cutting.

I have the mopar 2" lift and looking to get the 2" RC coil spacer to level the truck out, I just got my new wheels it looks awesome. I wasn't too sure on getting 35" tires and didn't want any issues but I ended up getting 34.3" tires. There seems to be more then enough room for 35" tires with just the mopar lift, though the price difference on tires was abit much for me.

Adding a 2 inch spacer on top of the 2 inch mopar is a bad idea, the mopar upper control arms are not made to handle that much lift. Neither are the CV shafts

Coil spacers doesn't necessarily adding more length to the strut it just adds more preload on the springs. Its similar to the bilstein 5100, moving the collar at the highest settings. If I had a strut spacer, that would increase strut length. I'm also 4x2, so im not too worried about cv shafts, though I may go for aftermarket arms if I do run into issues.

I've been looking around, and the least about is a 2" leveling kit. I also found out 4x4 and 4x2 leveling kits will fit as they have the same suspension set up. The previous generation 4x4 ram 1500 will also fit, as long as its a 4x4. I'll be install the spacer sometime next week and take more photos for others to see, from what I researched, 2" mopar lift + 2" RC front coil spacer will level out the truck.

Guy on youtube claims to have 35s on 24" wheels, stock suspension. Claimed to move the bumper forward 1/2" to fit.


My guess is the 33" fit without any kind of leveling. In fact, there was a post in here that accomplished what you trying to do:

I have this exact truck with body colored bumpers. Just ordered these wheels in 22x9 and Terra G2 grappler 285/55/22. The offset is +25 witht he 22 inch wheel and the 22 is 1 inch narrower than this guy's set up so I'm a little concerned it won't be flush but more set inside the fender. Thoughts? I"m new to all of this

Folks... what do you think. I'm was going with new rims at KO2... but keep my 22" and these coopers...

Looks awesome with the K02s. I have this truck in steel metallic and trying to figure out what to do! I ordered Terra Grappler g2s with 22 inch chrome wheels but now I'm thinking I might want to go with a more aggressive tire. How is the road noise and ride with those tires?

Are these 18” wheels by chance? I can’t seem to find much info on what 18” wheels fit. Not to many people are running anything smaller than 20s.

It actually wouldn't be as bad as you think. It's at the max, but not beyond.

Looks good but dam that's pretty high, here I am with my 2" mopar lift thinking its already a mission hopping into the truck, I'm 5'7" asian dude and definitely needs some steps. Anyways here is my 2" mopar lift kit with RC front 2" coilspacers, definitely looks alot more leveled than before. For the DIYers heres the setup I used to removed and install the strut nut, without using the special tool. I honestly think Mopar should include a 2" coil spacer, it looks more proper than having that rake especially after lifting the truck, what you guys think? Installing the a Magnaflow muffler tomorrow, will update the forums on that later.

For those who have just leveled their front end, did you do any headlight adjustments ? :)

I haven't and haven't had any issues. Can see just fine and nobody has flashed their lights at me yet.
