6" lift und tires..questions

VinceAustria · Dec 25, 2016

hi guys...i could get a 6" lift kit from rough Country for my 2016 ram...i know it is not the best to get, but i have a 4" lift kit in my zj and i´m happy with it :favorites13:

...

my question is...how much would 35x12,5x20´s or 37x12,5x20´s influence the acceleration of the hemi? i wanna have some bigger tires, but i also love the power of the engine

greetings from Austria

Welcome to the forum Sir !

Couple questions :

1) 4x4 or 2x4

2)what is you differential gear ratio ?

I have a 6 inch lift with 35x12.5x20 and I have 3.21 gears. you're going to be sluggish all around honestly. Once you get up to about 30-40, WOT will net you some very nice results. However, from a dead stop, it's going to feel like you're in a v6 pentastar ( found in the ram v6, Jeep v6, and durango v6 ), which is still pretty powerful. Overall though, if you are expecting power with what I have ( not sure what your gears are ), then you'll likely be disappointed

I have 35x12.50's and 3:55 gears. It's not a huge difference. Still runs strong.

I have 35x12.50x20's and 3.92 gears. Pulls strong haven't noticed any change really. The truck still tows fine.

Like RLK asked, we would need to know your gear ratio and if it's a 4x4?

I have a 4x4 5.7 HEMI with 3.55 gears and I'm running 37x13.50's. I definitely feel the difference but the HEMI still has some good get up and go.

If you have 3.21's, I'd stay with 35's. If you have 3.55's or 3.92's, you could probably go with 37's. I'd probably stay with 35's with a 6" lift in my opinion.

Will 3.21s handle 40" tires on a 2018 1500 ?
