LT305/65 r18 tire on stock rims

[lpennock]

I normally put about 23,000 miles on my trucks annually. 4,000 to 6,000 of that is towing heavy here in the western states and the rest is back and forth empty to Mexico hunting. Without better tires I’m getting stuck on wet grass. It’s very aggravating. I’ve run Toyo Open Country ATII tires and liked them but would be happy with Nittos as well. After reviewing your replies I’m going shopping for a 295/70r18 tire. In the Toyo and Nitto tires, they have increased the ratings to 4,080 pounds. Both are a little taller and a little wider than the current Firestones. Hopefully everything should fit, not rub and provide decent wear. Many thanks for the assistance, Harry

You will like the look of the 295/70r18. Looks like the truck should have came from the factory.

Aren't there tire sizes bigger then this tiny little 295/70-18 that fits the -non lifted- 2019 Ram?
He want to go off road and for this is the bigger the better.

LT285/75-18 is about 0.5" taller. After that you need to go to floatation sizes such as 37x1250.

Wheel offset becomes a big factor at this time, too...........

It does to but lift height does not help tire clearance until you get over 3 or 4" of lift, if the OP wants to keep stock wheels then a tire will rub the Radius arm and sway bar weather it is stock or has 4" of lift. Though high clearance sway bar and radius arms are being worked on to allow a 37x13.5 on stock wheels to clear at full lock.
