Max wheel/tire size (20's) with stock Air suspension?

Since I can't fit 18's on my Limited (barrel rubs against the calipers) and I have to go with 20's I am wondering what the largest size I'd be able to go is with stock suspension. Has anyone tried pushing the limits, yet?

The 22 limited wheels are nice, but doesn't match the overall color scheme I'm going for with the truck.
I have a 2019 ram 1500 limited, and I just installed 33x12.50r20 Toyo RT ties on my stock 20x9 inch rims and it works and looks great!! No rubbing at all. I didn't have to trim nor anything.

Do you have a picture of the entire truck with these wheels on?

I have a 2013 Laramie 1500 Crew Cab airride running 295/65/20 on stock rims. General Grabbers X3. The overall tire size is 35.1 Diameter and 11.6 wide. These tires fit perfect with 1 1/2 leveling linkage up front. I've off road a lot with these tires and never had an issue.

I have 305 50r 20's on my factory wheels. They only rub in entry mode at full lock. No other rubbing at all Screenshot_20180923-210310_Gallery.jpg

I want to thank everyone for the posts. Definitely helped me with decisions for my new limited. I went with 20x9 +0 offset rims and was able to put BFG AT KO2 305x55x20 under it without any trimming and the air suspension still works perfectly.

Any rubbing when the truck lowers to Aerodynamic?

I came across these two 2019 1500 limited's, both with Air Suspension. You can see that one has stock 20" wheels, and the other has stock 22" wheels. Both vehicles have Toyo Open Country 35X12.50R20LT. I called and spoke with several people at the dealership to make sure that both vehicles have the 4-corner air suspension. They confirmed they did and that there was no rubbing even when the truck raises and lowers. They did mention that they installed 1/4" wheel spacers on the truck with 22" wheels.

Honestly, how rough is the ride with those tires and links compared to before the upgrades. Also, how much did your mpg change. Thanks

Nice truck by the way

I honestly have no complaints at all. I only raised the front 1" and lowered the rear 1" so there's not near as much difference as the guys getting a full two inches out of the front. I'm averaging about 14-15mpg right now but it's been cold as hell here so the truck idles a bunch.

Where those pictures with or without the Off-Road Package? In either case, at which height setting?

Did you have to put level links on it for this to work or is it with the stock links?

with these size tires you have no rubbing in normal mode? I'm just double checking you havent had any issues since because I am debating ordering a set
