Thanks for the garage measurements. That's actually pretty close to what I have. I appreciate that.

Excellent. Thanks. The truck looks great and this is very helpful. I'd love to do this, I'm just not sure if it'll fit in my garage. I've actually cosnidered swapping out my ORP front springs for the standard springs to leave a little more rake for when I go camping. Kind of the opposite of what so many have done on here!

Needless to say, I'm jealous! Just wish my garage door was a couple inches taller.
Just wanted to chime in... I know the 4th gens are probably a little different but my garage is 80 inches tall exactly.. My previous truck was a '13 Laramie with 6" lift and 35s and it would NOT fit in my garage but my buddy has a '12 Laramie w 4" lift and I actually just detailed it for him the other day and it did in fact fit in my garage! The weather stripping on the garage door rubbed the shark fin a tiny bit pulling through but cleared the door and pulled in the garage no problem, if he had 37s it wouldn't have fit. I could be wrong but I feel like the 4th gens sat higher than these 5th gens so if his 4th Gen fit with 4" I feel like the 5th gens with 4" would easily fit in my 80" garage opening!!

Little late to this thread. I am looking at the 4" BDS and am planning on running 20"x12" Hostile rims, -44 offset, -4.5" backspacing on 35"x12.50" tires. I have a '19 4x4 Laramie sport without the ORP. Looks like the extra -20mm offset between the 10" and 12" wide wheels equates to about .79", little over 3/4". I have no problem ditching the OEM mudflap, not a big fan of it anyway. ANY idea on how difficult it will be to clear this setup? Hostile makes the same wheel in a 20"x10" with a -19 offset but I had the -44 with the same setup on my '14 ram eco diesel and absolutely loved it!

Make sure to post pics if you go with the -44... I had 20x12 -24 and 6" lift on my 13 Laramie but kind of thinking about sticking with a 4" this time around on my new longhorn as well as idk if I wanna go -44 or -24 like I had on my 13 Laramie... Anything under -24 isn't enough pop for me, I originally bought -12 offset on my last truck and didn't like how little it stuck out on my big 6" lift so I sold them and bought the -24 which looked way better than the -12 IMO
