Looks great
Thank you. I like the 33s. They aren’t much bigger than the stickers so my fuel mileage didn’t take a big hit, and for as thin as the sidewall is this thing still rises great

Are the 33’s E load rated or do they stay D rated? The E load rated tires are much stiffer.

Hey man here is the proof you might be looking for. Anything else just holler.

A bit dirty but here’s a better side pic.

heres a couple better side pics. Excuse the salt all over it. Post some pics when you get it, look forward to seeing it.
So question for you...If I run the 12.5 wides with an +18 offset do you think Ill have a slightly aggressive stance? I dont have the fender flares like you and they're around a half inch wide. Thanks!

I don’t know if this helps but this is 33x12.5x22 on the stock 22s

Exactly Rammit....I don't have the fender flares so I'm going to be exactly where I want to be....now just need to pick a wheel :)
Glad that helped

yes I’m not a big fan of the fender flares but mine came on it and I’m not sure how the adhesive they put them on with will look if I take them off. Not to mention I’m not a painter so I’m not going to risk it...or having rocks all down the side. I’m usually in and out of fields and gravel roads quite a bit so I’ll let them on for now.

Can you fit 35 inch tires with 22 inch rims on the 3.5 ready lift kit?

Probably depends on what offset you choose.
Joey P is correct, It’s all about the offset. The size of the rim diameter is not really critical as long as it’s big enough to clear the brake rotor and caliper. A 35” on 20’s is not going to be any different than 35” on 22’s. The width of the rim and offset are what is going to determine if it fits. Refer to the ready lift website for width and offset recommendations

Gotcha...Im getting the Bighorn so I wont have the fender flares like you do. I also agree that it doesn't look good when the tires stick out too far...with that being said Im hoping that I get a little bit of an aggressive stance if I choose the 12.5 wide with the +14 offset...If I run the 11.5's like you Ill choose the 0 offset...The fender flares on your truck cant be much more than a 1/4 in.

Exact same set up on mine. "0" offset with 35x12.5 Open Country. However I'm running the RC 3.5. ride quality is a bit stiffer but I love the stance of my truck.

I ordered my 20x9 fuel Mavericks and the Readylift kit this week. The truck should be here soon. Still have to decide on a tire but I’m leaning toward the Nitto Ridge Grapplers.
Kind of a dumb sounding question but I’m going through the same thought process with the 3.5” lift. I’ve seen a lot of pictures online but it’s hard to really see how it looks and I haven’t seen any in person. Was the 3.5 with larger tires a pretty noticeable difference for you? Thanks!

Since I didn’t use the preload spacer my truck only has between 2 and 2.5” lift in the front. Even so, it is very noticeable. I had a pic of it parked by a stock limited and it really shows a huge change. Unfortunately, I deleted the pic. The lift really changes the look of the truck and makes the front end look so much better in my opinion.
