What size lift to run 35s?

[Robbyreneeward]

Decided on after market wheels and tires, and want to run 35s, minimal lift and keep it close to stock looking. So, 2”? 4”? My wrangler I just sold had a 2.5” Evo lift and I ran 37s with spacers up front no problems. Also, best kit compatible with air ride? 2022 limited 1500. Thanks and happy thanksgiving.

The Ram ain't no Wrangler.... I did a 4" BDS lift and my 35x12.5s fit nicely. You can do 3.5" lifts and get away with it. Maybe a little trimming or heat gun molding of the liners up front, maybe not. At 3.5 you are maxing out the angles on the cv joints though. BDS fixes that.

Not like the solid axle jeep. Heck I slapped 35s on my Rubicons stock rims and went on with it. Not as easy on these trucks.

I went from a 3.5" lift to 2.5" level and 35s fit fine on mine. My wheels are 18x9.5 and tires are 35x12.5. I did not have ORP or Air bags.

I put 2inch levelling spacers(front and rear) on my 2022 non-orp, non-airride Longhorn Limited and run LT285/65R20 KO2, which are the equivalent of 35x11R20, on stock 20x9 rims, and will have zero rub once I trim my mud flaps.

If you run 35x12.50R20 on stock rims you will have some rubbing, which may or may not be cured with the heat gun trick. And even if you put some LT285/65R20 on aftermarket rims (different offset) you will more than likely rub....you might get away with 2.5 or 3inch spacers..

3.5 lifts will work but yes a little bit of work in the wheel well with liner.

My NITTO Ridge Grapplers are effectively 35's. A small bit larger actually and they fit great on the stock 20's. Bilstein's up front and 3/4" MotoFab spacer in the back. No rub at all.
