2019+ Rams with Lifts/Levels, and/or aftermarket wheel tire setups

[Pyleketerson]

Haha no offense taken! The readylifts were the only thing out at the time I bought them so.
I'm looking to switch them out for total choas or icon UCA's pretty soon and swap in the 2/3 inch fox shocks to.

Ok good! They were the only thing available for my 2019 Laramie as well at the time (purchased in 2018). Dang sounds like you’re on the right track!

New Wheels and Tires.

Just installed 35 inch General Grabber X3's and Fuel Ammo 18" wheels.
Tire size 35x12.5x18 Very happy with the Generals. Coming off BFG KO2's that were about 1/2 worn and I was surprised that the Generals were actaully quiter and rode softer (20" wheels with KO2's). I'm sure they'll get louder as they wear.
Wheels: Fuel Ammo 18x9 -12mm offset
Rough country 3.5 inch lift kit. Definitely had some back and forth on getting the ride and level correct, but happy with the end result.
I had moderate rubbing on install when turning. The front wheel wells had to be modified at the rear lower spats to accomodate the 35's.
I bent the sheet metal under the spat and re-drilled the plastic liner to re-use the existing hole in the sheet metal. Also had to heat and re-mold the lower spats to gain a bit more clearance so they wouldn't pull out the clips.

Sweet! Post back here when you get your wheels and tires mounted! Can’t wait to see a Billet Silver BTS. I love that color.

Ready for this early season snowfall. Still have some trimming to do with these 35’s. View attachment 72845 View attachment 72846 View attachment 72847

Edit on this: went back to the shop today that installed my suspension and wheels/tires and they finished my trimming at no additional cost today. It’s finally done! And it doesn’t look cut up which I can’t say for myself if I had done it. A good shop is a good investment if you’re modding your rig

Sorry, forgot to add that mine is not BTS edition. It’s Canadian Sport. Also forgot to add that I am getting Mopar 2” lift kit installed. I will post for sure.

What lift got you 8"?

6 inch zone, rough country lifted struts rather than the strut spacer, and readylift leveling kit,

Pavement Princess. Just had the lift, tires, and wheels done this past weekend. Sometimes it's difficult to imagine exactly how it will turn out, even with pictures online. However, I'm very happy with it, and I'll admit that I'm the exception, as I like the chrome.

Well, hopefully it won't be long before I can post pics of my truck. I finally pulled the trigger on a set of Method NV -12 in black. So many choices. Like all the colors. If I made a mistake, it will be the -12 offset. But here's why I went that way...

Most of the trucks I could find with 18x9 -12 wheels looked there was a bit more poke than I wanted, especially since my truck has naked fenders. BUT.... most of these trucks also have 35x12.5 tires. That's when it clicked and I think some of the confusion over the pics here start to make more sense.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the math says: 35x12.5 on a 0/+1 wheel will stick out exactly the same as a 35x11.5 on a -12. (1/2"=12.7mm)

In the end, any mix of these would be cool. Just trying to get it right the first time.

Also, Two more factors in wheel choice.. weight and availability. Some wheels on my shortlist are only available in -12, like the Method 305 NV. And, some wheels on my shortlist ended up being significantly heavier than others. For example, the Methods are 31# while some others are as much as 40#. Um no thanks.... I think adding 20 lbs per corner is enough. Dang, my 20" stock wheels I think are under 35#

Thanks to all who post pics and info here... does help to figure where to start

How is the auto leveling suspension affected by installing 2" leveling up front? Does the truck remain level or does the air suspension correct to stock rake?

Nice pics. So just minor trim. I would love to get some KO2 on my laramie rims after I get my rough country 2" leveling strut on the fronts, and a 1" hockey puck for the rears.

You adjust the rear links to maintain some rake if you like. I have adjusted rear to have 1/2 of rake. Pic is on driveway which has slope so probably hides that.

I would say I took out the inner most 25% of the factory mud flaps. To put that into my context I feel that’s minor trimming since no metal cut or bent. Now the crappy mud flaps don’t hold a ton of mud and gravel as an un for seen bonus.

2020 1500 Big Horn - No lift (leveling kit is going in this week) - Moto Metal MO978 20x10 -25 - Federal Xplora MTS 33x12.5

This setup clears lock to lock with about 1/2 an inch to spare. I meant to have the leveling kit on before the wheels but life just hasn't permitted it so it's under the rear seat and going in this week.

 

[brandonjscioneaux]

Did they fix the four wheel drive shutter on leveled trucks? It was a huge issue on early DS models.

Looks like the same setup, so I wouldn't bet on it.
