Definitely a much improved look from the factory 285 set up.

Stock air suspension? Any rubbing?

Looks nice. How’s the diameter compared to the Goodyears? Did you have to recal the speedo?

I love the setup looks great! Quick q: those tires (305/45/22) support a 9.5-11.5in wheel but the limited 22's are 9 inches. My dealer said they wouldn't mount my wheels on the 305/45/22 tires because it's a safety concern. I asked a local tire shop and they said no also. Wondering how you got it done?

Stock Air suspension. A little rubbing on the plastic when @ full lock, but not bad.

Here's how it went down. I went to Discount Tire and told them I was looking at AT tires - they looked a the truck and recommended this size in the Ridge Grapplers. I asked if there were any concerns about rubbing, throwing rocks that would hit the paint, etc. they said no, so we ordered them. I asked again before they installed them if there was any issue with this size on the factory rims, and they said no...

Now that you mention it though, I do remember seeing that they were made to for 9.5-11.5" rims, so I might call them tomorrow to double check. I definitely dont want any safety issues. But I love them so far!

They are around a little less than an inch larger in diameter. The speedometer is only off around 1 mph @ 65, so I doubt I will recal it.

Actually, Discount TIre's website lists them as supporting 9.0-11.5" rims:

I have the same setup. Installed by Discount tire. I did notice the same 9.5-11.5 on the tire spec but personally wasn't concerned. I am not saying that to suggest that you shouldn't validate, just my opinion.

Discount tire is Americas tire on the West coast. Their website says the same so I'll give them a call tomorrow. Not knowing much about tire and wheel sizing, can someone let me know what the concern is with the wheel being 1/2 smaller then the recommended wheel size?

I had them match Amazons price $364 at the time, and they gave me $200 for my original tires that had about 6k on them. I could have probably sold the originals outright for more but I decided against having a stack of tires in the garage.

Curious about Nitto Ridge Grappler all_ Season Radial Tire-33x12.50R22 114F as an alternative. The overall diameter seems a little less according to description from Amazon. I also don't have air suspension. Any idea if these will work?

How is the ride compared to the stock 285's? I have the LImited setup as well and was considering going to a 20" wheel, the 285/45 tires suck.

In my case, ride quality is great. Also, they wear very well. I have 10k miles on one set, and they still look almost new. Granted, they are not off road or snow tires. Other than that, no complaints. Just curious.

Ride is a lot harsher than my previous 2015 limited with the 275/60r20's. I ran the Toyo AT II's.

Ride seems the same as the stock Goodyears, but a little louder. Not too loud though. I can hear other people's AT tires over mine on the road, and if the radio is on I can't hear them. I'm sure 20s would give a little more cushioning.

I have these wheels on my new RAM. Did these tires alter your factory ride in any way?

 

[erandt26]

anyone do this combination without the air suspension? Any rub?

I have these on my Laramie, 4x4, steel suspension. No rub!
