My door sticker said the same size as yours. I put winter tires on that were LT275/65R18. I went to this site Speedometer Calibration Calculator to see what the speedometer difference would be. Mine is very close. Yours will be reading a bit lower than you are actually going according to this site. They also have tire pressure calculatorsSince I started this thread, I want to share that I decided to go with 18" Ram Rebel wheels. The story with pictures is here: What did you do to your Ram today???
most likely the past owner changed tire and wheel size.I just purchased a 2022 RAM 1500 with 2,680 miles from a CJDR Dealership.
The truck has OEM 20" wheels.
Checked the door sticker the next day and found out it says 18" wheels/tires !!!
Not sure why this is.............
Checked the Window Sticker but it does not state any wheel/tire size.most likely the past owner changed tire and wheel size.
Try putting your vin in, capital letters, for your build sheet.Checked the Window Sticker but it does not state any wheel/tire size.
It doe shave the 25Z Package but no mention of wheel type or size.

I thought the Limited's came with the 22's mine came with goodyear's they were ok tires.So, I just bought a new 1500 Limited Elite and am loving it. Spending this much on a truck, I wanted to get exactly what I wanted. You can imagine my excitement when I found exactly that at a dealer who just happened to be right on the way home from my vacation spot in Montana, along I-15, on my way back to Arizona. I just had to stop in and buy it! In the excitement of seeing it and purchasing it, I didn't pay enough attention to the tires. The window sticker said they were 20", the load sticker inside the door frame said they were 20" and 20" is exactly what I wanted. This will be primarily a highway truck for me with occasional off-road (mainly rough 2-track trails) travel. My thought process is that 20" gives a little more sidewall for protection for the rim and maybe a little softer ride. Anyway, when I got home and started looking things over closer, I discovered that the truck actually had 285/45R22 Pirelli Scorpion Verde tires on it. WTF? I called the dealer (who is 600 miles away) to ask what the deal is. They claim they have no idea why it has 22" tires and I think I believe them. After all, its about a $2000 dollar upgrade and I have to believe they would have liked to charge me for them. I have to admit that I do LOVE the way these tires ride and the quiet ride on the highway. I'm not all that excited about the look (I prefer smaller rim, bigger sidewall) but, after all, it's mostly an on road truck. Here are my questions for the group:
1) What do you think happened here? Screwup at assembly?
2) For my use, will I probably be just as happy with these tires anyway?
3) Does anyone out there have much off road experience with these tires - how do they perform? My main concern is hitting a rock and damaging the sidewall or rim. I don't really plan to be doing heavy duty off-roading.
4) Since the doorframe sticker doesn't match my tires, what psi should I run and do these tires affect the payload rating?
5) Does anyone happen to have a similarly equipped truck and tires they could post the door frame sticker from?
About the payload rating. I am kind of surprised that the payload is only 1165 pounds. The GVWR is 7100 LB and the shipping weight was 5424 LB. Shouldn't the payload be about 1700 LB?
I'm loving the truck and believe that, overall, I'll be happy with these tires - unless I damage them on a rock some time ;-) Any insight or opinions on what the heck happened here and how I should feel about it are appreciated.

read this threadMine has the 26 gallon tank.
Would of been real nice to have the 33 gallon tank. My 18 Tundra had a 36 gallon tank.
Well, it’s not the only option…see sig.Same for me. My 20s were ok, but 18s are so much better with 295/70s.
I also put on rebel wheels.
Of course this is only my opinion.
I was looking at a 2019 Bighorn with chrome wheels, didn't want them, dealer won't swap them for something else. Not sure what the issues are or could be with the dealerships. There are always wheel sets from Rams for sale on craigslist.In May 2019 I bought my new 1500 Ltd. It had the $1695 option for 22’s. I did not want them, only wanted 20’s for the additional sidewall and less expensive tires.
The dealer refused to trade them and said that the truck was designed for the 22’s and he couldn’t/wouldn’t do it.
1500’s that were about 1-2 months older than mine had the 20’s.
I’m sure that several owners didn't want theirs either, so they sold them to peeps who did.
