Here are a few pics with some information, hopefully this might help.

- White letter on the tires are the stock Wildpeak AT 275/55/20 when I bought the truck.
- Top right (first pic)is the BFG KO2s 275/60/20 (still with the non ORP springs with a slight rub at full turn in reverse)
- (Not pictured) after the correct ORP springs were installed VIA recall, it eliminated the tire rub and I gained 1.25" at all four wheel well openings.
- Top left (first pic) was yesterday after the Bilstein's #5 setting (on the fronts only).

So now the BFG 275/60/20s look small, but imo there is definitely plenty of room to go with 285/65/20s.
Thanks for these pictures. I have a bighorn ORP and have the bilsteins and 275/65r20 Nitto RG ready to install. Have been racking my brain on whether to go with clip 5 or 4. I am also putting the rear bilsteins on and a 1" motofab coil spacer to maintain a bit of rake. I'm thinking I may have waited and got 285/65. I wonder if clip 4 would be better. Afraid the tires will end up looking too small.

That looks great. Also, you would definitely have room to run a 285/65/20. I had 33x11.5x20's on my last truck with stock off road package and they fit without issues. Thanks for sharing.

Hey no problem, I know that's why most of us are on here to share info and help each other out. I did not do the UCAs, left them stock for now but have zero issue and angles don't look too bad. I just bought the 275/60s last year so I will have to wait until I wear them down before I can justify another set. But the 285/65s will be on in the future, lol.

Bilsteins and mopar ucas bilsteins set to #5 line. 2” level. Sits perfectly. Rides great. Need to get it aligned tomorrow but tracks well so far. My mechanic said he didn’t see a difference between the stock orp ucas and the mopar 2” lift ucas. I told him there is. Either way looks even better in person. As someone else on the forums said this is how it should have come from the factory.

That looks good! What size tires? Looks like the toyo AT3 but could be wrong.

2019 With ORP and Readylift 2” kit with UCA’s and 285/65/20 Falken Wildpeaks on factory wheels. No rubbing and it sits 1/2” high in the rear. Again just like it should be offered from the factory.

I'm not sure why the ORP thing is so confusing to me! I have a 19 Laramie without the ORP. If I see that you leveled your truck 2", does that mean I need to lift mine 3" to achieve the same fender height?

That is correct. Orp adds 1” to the truck from factory. If you do the mopar or whatever 2” lift all around you are still 1” shorter than the orp.


2019 Ram 1500 ORP “long bed” - setting #5 bilsteins, 2”mopar ucas, hellwig sway bar, tonneau cover, bed mat, 20” Laramie sport wheels on 285/60r20 falkens. Flowmaster outlaw.
