How wide can you go on a stock Rebel wheel without rubbing issues on upper A-arm? Obviously, I mean without using spacers.

Sounds like a nice setup! Do you happen to have some pics of the entire truck? I would love to see how it looks.

I love it! Are you running leveling links and Daystar spacers?
Only the Revel links front & back with maybe only 1” more with them so it doesn’t ruin the ride i installed the daystar spacers & on the Rebel on full droop the upper control arms touched the strut can so i took them off

Thank you for sharing that. I’ll try raising the front 1” on my Rebel as a starting point. I think that’s probably the sweet spot for maintaining the ride comfort.

On a Rebel 34.5 & 12 Wide Will Clear without rubbing or modding, 12.5 will rub the small mud flap.

With regards to your Fuel wheels, what size did you get 18X9 or 20X9 and what offset? What size tires did you install? I am thinking about Fuel Covert wheels with bigger than stock tires. I have not lifted or leveled my 2019 and don't want to unless I have to!

18X9 i think 0 offset i remember emailing Fuel before buying them and i was instructed on a certain model number that would perfectly fit the new Ram, My tires are 295/70/18 Diameter 34.49 width 12

I reached out to Fuel as well. The +20 offset will keep it close to stock and +1 offset will make it slightly more aggressive. I'm deciding between the 18" or 20" rims. Thanks for the info!

That’s what i found

While I have a different suspension - The Falcon shocks setup, I've run mine in the "medium" position. They have 4 settings
- Stock
- Medium
- "Level" (I would bet it isn't)
- And "heavy equipment" (If you have a winch or heavy bumper).

For payload/rake reasons, and on the hunch that "medium" was going to preserve ride quality- I went with medium. I think the ride feel is very good, and I feel justified!
It's not level, and I saw it very recently next to a totally stock Rebel with spring suspension as well - it doesn't look stock side by side. The ~.8in it got lift in the front is noticeable.

Park of me thinks I could fit a 285/70R18 tire, but I'm heart set on a tire with a 3PMSF snow rating.

295/70R18 , or 34.3 x 11.6? I wonder if it's doable.
Stock tire size is 33.3 x 10.8

I might volunteer to be the guinea pig!

I'm bumping this thread up, I think at some point I will try to go to the 34.3in tires with the Falcon medium setting shocks.

If/when I do that one day, I'll try hard to remember this thread!
I'm mulling over attempting to Sell the Toyo AT3s to partially "fund" the upgrade to the larger ones
