Hey,

Can anyone tell me what the biggest size tire I can buy for a 2020 Ram 1500 Big Horn without a lift? Need new tires, but wanted to go bigger with my stock suspension. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

275/65/20 is close to a 34" tire.
285/65/20

Stay with 275 or 285 width will help keep from running. It's when you go to wider tires, 295+ or 11.5"+ is when you start getting rubbing

Well, yeah, if you are comparing a 20" tire to an 18" tire.

My exact post earlier....275/75/18. .1" taller than the 20s. But I still don't hate you. Maybe it's because I'm not local.

I missed the "than the 20's" part.

Yeah, if you missed that, reading quickly, I imagine the difference between 65 and 75 series, probably is an inch. I love that site, because it shows the comparison with height, width, circumference, revolutions per mile, and speedo error for any comparison.

I prefer this one. For mez gives more useful Information, and I don't need a visual comparison. Just give me the numbers.

33 inch tire with factory width should be fine without a level
