fitting 35's??

[MechanicMike]

Just wondering if 35" tires will fit on my 04. 5 Ram 2500 QC without lifting??



Also would like some recommendations on a good all around tire for mud/snow/sand etc. Any info is much appreciated.



Thanks Mike

They should. IF they rub it will most likely be the tires rubbing the lower front control arms and/or hitting the lower front air dam slightly and BOTH issues would only be when you turn the wheels completely to one side or the other and neither will hurt anything.

How much are you asking for the Ricksons?

MM- XJ is right on where they rub... only I have a ~2" lift via T-Rex and the 35x18 toyo MT. Other consideration is that I have the Weld Chyenne's with the Dodge set-back and Backspacing. These rims keep the tire in the stock position, rubbing a bit on a hard right turn. My local tire shop has a policy to try the fit before selling the tire. You might ask if your's will.

Does anyone know the backspacing on the stock 17" dodge ram rims??? I know weld has rims with 6. 25" backspace. Looking to run 20" rim with 325 60 20 nitto grappler tires 35" equivilant, I haven't found anyone with a photo though. I believe a 2" leveling kit with a rim with close to stock backspacing would be the ticket with minimal rubbing if any.

Thanks for the replies. can anyone recommend a good all around tire for mud/snow/sand. I was told to stay away from an aggresive tread pattern cause they tend to dig into sand. Also are there any places on the net that have good deals on tires? thanks again. Mike

I figure around 1300. 00 obo is a fair price for ricksons with like new tires.
