Hello everyone,
I was just curious if 35" wheels on a stock 2019 RAM rebel will lead to any rubbing in the tire beds. I currently want to put bigger tires (from 33" to 35" tires) on my truck, but was curious if I will need a lift kit as well. I don't mind buying a lift kit, but obviously if I'm able to save money that would be the best option. So I just wanted to see what others have done. Please let me know. Thanks

You need at least a 2" leveling kit. Then you'll need to remove the factory mudflaps in the front and bend the thin sheet metal behind it.
I have the Bilstein 6112 coilovers in the front set to the highest setting. Rear is stock.
18x9 wheels with a -12 offset gives the best look with this setup in my opinion. Check out my pics on my profile.

Just put 295/70s on my stock 21 Rebel. No rub at all and no modifications. They are 34. 3". Not 35s but would be close..
Did you have to do any trimming? Also how much room is there still? I have currently been looking at some Toyo Open Country R/T's that are about 34.9 inflated (at least according to their website).

No trimming. I'll get a closer pic of the wheel at full lock so u can see how much room there is.

Here's the pics. There's 1.25" between tire and the small "flap" that's in front wheel well. It's tight, idk if a bigger tire would rub other places. I didn't measure behind the tire.

I was thinking about putting something close on a 22 ram rebel. Did you put on Goodyear DuraTrac similar to the OEM tire?
Never mind I scrolled down and saw the pictures. Thank you for posting.

This is exactly what I am trying to do. I would like to put a a 305 on my truck but worried about the fitment. I have a 2" lift in the front and a 1.5" lift in the rear. Would this be enough clearance?

Did a 2" Ready Lift and upgraded to 35" KO2's on my stock 2022 Rebel rims. Not even remotely close to rubbing, love it. My gas mileage sucks though.

How much did it change from stock tires?

Hi Dan,
Is that 2" both front and rear or just in front? Would love to see some pics.
Thanks for sharing!
