I know this has been covered, I've searched and found some of the solutions to my questions. I still have specific questions- I have the factory 22" rims on my laramie. The wheel/tire proportions look terrible IMHO. I would like to get a 34 to 35 inch tire on the factory 22" rim, without losing any smoothness/drivability. Huge bonus if the tire has an agressive look. This truck will be driven 98% on the road.

Which lift/leveling kit maintains the closest to factory ride?

Toyo Open Country RT's versus Ridge Grapplers? It seems slim pickings for 22 diameter wheels. My concerns over the ridge grapplers is the 10 ply sidewall.

Has anyone purchased and ran these? https://www.amazon.com/Radar-Renega...546705876&sr=1-1&keywords=35x12.5r22+renegade

Or how about these?

If you lvl it all say same great ride quality. It’s the tires that is said to change that.

Interested also. I have the limited 22’s on my laramie non air suspension. Wanting to go with ridge grapplers. I think the 33s isn’t enough meat with the 22 and ride will be tougher. 35 may be better but they sure are pricey.

Agreed- the tire proportions just looked off! I don't feel 22's with 35s is the best look, personal preference is all. SO happy with my Toyo RT's!

Love the look on those tires/rims sizes. Did you reprogram your speedometer? If so, how?
You need to buy a "tuner". Rough country sells one that just does tire size and there are a couple other ones that do more stuff

I'm in the same situation. Want to stay with the factory 22's. Did you go with the ridge grapplers? If so, what size? I'm worried about the ride with those.

I've decided to go with Terra Grapplers. 305/45/22. What do you think? Thanks

I haven’t bought level or tires yet. I’ve had terra graps and trail graps. I don’t recommend the terra graps. Did not wear well for me even with frequent rotations. However that was on my 2010 so it’s been awhile. Not great traction in nw pa either.
