Please post pics of lifted trucks with factory wheels

Looking to see some pics of lifted Rams with stock 20's and 35-37" tires. I am trying to debate what size and kind of tire to do. Thanks!!

2011 Ram 1500 4x4. Zone 6/5 lift with Bilsteins for 8" lift. Stock 20's on Mickey Thompson 35/12.5R20's. If you go with a 8" get 37's.

35.5s on stock wheels plasti-dipped.

Mad Cow · Feb 8, 2012

Thanks Evan. I am just ready to wrap the wheels in some 38's.

When lifted on stock 20's, wider tires would require a spacer right? Like a 1/4 inch one.

Mad Cow · Feb 8, 2012

Yes I have hub extenders on mine with a 1/4" wheel spacers on the front.

quietpeen · Feb 9, 2012

yea you would definitely spacers with stock wheels and wider tires like 12.5

Did you have spacers? If so how big? Did they rub? What about hub extenders? What are they? Were they Nitto trail grapplers? What was the tire size?

hub

What are hub extenders? Where do you buy them? Why are they needed?

If you are wanting to run a 12" or wider tire you will want a wheel spacer. You can run up to a 1/2" wheel spacer and fit tires 13.5" wide with out rub. I have hub extenders which are like a wheel spacer however I have a full thread exposed for the wheel to screw on instead of a few threads like you will get with the wheel spacers. I wanted a full look with my wheels that is why I ran this set up. I will be taking my stock wheels off any day now and will have the spacer for sale if interested then. I will post it in the for sale section once it's off my truck.

I want those mirrors w/ lights under, you and mad cow have. Know part number?

Mad Cow · Feb 10, 2012

I don't know the part number off hand but they are the mirrors that come with the sport package. I saw a set of painted tow mirrors today and I am wanting them. You could also go that route if you wanted to.

I can get you a set. :birgits_tiredcoffee

90 a pop, shipped. These are TYC replicas, I'd need to order them in (I do a stock order 1x a month, looking to submit tomorrow or Monday).

I can also get them in as a paint to match item. 95 per mirror. Paint would run 100 on the set for gloss black to match your truck. (only the cap would be painted, like the factory ones).

Mad Cow · Feb 10, 2012

JJ can you do painted tow mirrors? I saw a set and Daddy likes. Oh I need to talk with you about bulbs I am thinking of doing full LED swap on the exterior rear bulbs with the cree bulbs. I had a questions though are the factory brake/turn lights red or clear. Does it matter what color you put in there or will a white like not look right.

Sorry for hijacking thread.
