I've been a silent observer over the past few months but learned a lot from the group. Thanks to everybody for the comments and experience that I have been soaking up to build the perfect truck for me. I spent a lot of time going back and forth on a lot of the lift/level/wheels/tires options but couldn't be happier with the outcome. Check out the pictures and my signature for all the details on my truck. After going through the whole process I have a bit of experience under my belt now and would be happy to lend my experience to anybody with questions. Thanks everybody!

Yes 20x10 with 35s. The off-road package gives me a 1" lift all around then I leveled it with Motofab 2.5" front spacers and Readylift upper control arms. I waffled for a long time if I wanted to get another 1" of lift by using the Readylift 3.5" kit but ended up just leveling it because the 1" from the ORG paired with the 2.5" spacers gives me the 3.5" lift over stock. I'm real glad I didn't go higher, in my opinion it looks plenty big and still rides great.[/QUOTE]

Looks great. So I picked up a 19 Laramie. Thinking of a 3.5 “. Kit. With 20x 10. And 35s. Did you have to cut off the tab under the little mud flap. And massage and heat the wheel well ? Also. What offset are your wheels ?

The shop that did the work for me said they didn't have to cut anything but I did notice a few new screws put in to tighten up some of the plastic inside the wheel wells. I have not experienced any rubbing. -18 offset on the wheels.

It took me 4 months to make a decision on my setup. Debating on levels/lifts etc. I essentially went with a 2.5in Body Armor level, 22×12.50 and 33in M/T

looks good. What offset are you running?

Has anyone looked at a setup for chains with enough space, both in wheel well and between tire and control arm? For winter, I'd like to put as tall a tire on my truck as possible with minimal lift. Considering 20" wheels and 35" tires with a leveling kit but don't have a lot of experience with making everything work with lifts and wheel offsets. The truck is 1500 Laramie 5.7L engine 3.92 gears off-road group.

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.
have you had any issues with the 18s and the brake calipers?

I run a 275/65 tire on stock 20’s for winter. I have a 3 1/2” lift but these tires should work with a minimal lift. Seems to be the tallest, most narrow tire for the money. There are others that are slightly taller with the same width but are much more expensive. All my truck info in my signature, sorry, I have no experience with chains!

Any rub with the -18 offset? Are the tires 12.5 wide?

Just got a Motofab 2.5 and Falken Wildpeak AT3/W 285/65/20 on in the -4 degree snow this weekend hence the unclean truck. Will get washed with better pictures this week. Still have to let the front settle a little bit, gained more than 2.5 on the front right after installation. Also sitting on a slope to the rear doesn't help IMG_1525.jpg IMG_1526.jpg
