New to the group, just bought my 16 Ram BigHorn about a month ago. I want to level the front but am worried it will look weird (tires being too small)with the stock tires/rims on it yet. I decided to go with the Bilstein 5100s over spacers so it will probably be awhile before I buy new tires on it. Was wondering if anyone can help me out with pics of what a stock tire, 2" level ram looks like. I see tons a pics of them leveled with aftermarket tires/rims but none with stock tires. If it looks bad I may just wait to do the install until I get tires also.

Get a jack and jack up the front till your fender is 2" higher. Then just step back and take a look. Pics are great but with the jack you can see it in person. I think you'll be fine

I have personally done this. its the best way to get an idea of what YOUR truck will look like in person with a level.

I also think it will look fine.
