They say "clearance is clearance" in the machinist world! I think it works here also. I'm curious what is the stock tire size your running? I tried looking up tires with the size from your earlier post where you said you ended up going with 265/75/18 and I don't see any tires that come with those specs... Is it possible your running 275/65/18? Thanks for you help on this. I just ordered a 1500 2023 Limited Patriot Blue night edition with the off road package (gives you an extra 1" of lift with the heavy duty shocks). Unfortunately they still give you the 22" rims which are completely useless to actually go off road. So I'm going to replace the rims and tires as soon as it come in. I really want to go with the TRX rims like you did but I am thinking I could always do the night edition Rebel rims if I can't find tires that clear.
Thanks again!
Yes, that was a typo earlier unfortunately. Running stock size from what's on a Bighorn, 275/65/18. With that extra 1'' you should have no issue going with a bigger OD, width is the issue here without spacers. If you go 285 you will be dam close, 295 will likely hit. At the time of buying I was about to go 275/70/18 but decided not to mess around and keep the OD the same as the stock 275/55/20. Also was looking at pricing, going to that larger size (275/70/18) at the time would cost me another $120ish and I didn't care to spend more.
I liked how the stock TRX tread pattern looked so that's why I did these ultraterrians, they seem to be the exact same pattern. On the Goodyear territory AT (what's on the TRX) the tread pattern completely changes once you choose a size that's different from the TRX. No one who rides in my truck complains or even notices the road noise, I do. Next set might be a bit less aggressive now that its out of my system.....or not.
I would watch FB marketplace for TRX wheels and finally found some without tires. Most of what I was finding was people dumping the wheels and tires but I didn't want to mod the truck. I've seen them as cheap as $500 for the set of wheels only, I unfortunately already paid $800.
