I have a 2014 ram 1500 stock looking to level it and put some meaty 33s on the stock rims just looking for opinions on what brand leveling kit and with amount of level to go to make it look good. Also what brand and style tires to put on the rims. Any opinion helps. Thanks

Everybody is going to tell you bilsteins. If you use your truck offroad a lot, then thats a good investment. If its only pavement driven, then any other cheaper leveling kit would work. The amount of level is up to you. Tires are the same. Lots of people like coopers, ko2, g2, etc.

I'm going to say bilsteins 5100 adjustable because there is greater chance of ball joints popping out of the uca with spacers since you have a 2014. Next I'm going to say that setting the bilsteins at 2.1 will be a great choice. That's what I set mine at and i have just a slight rake still

I like my spacers but those two are definitely correct about the ball joins. Mine failed after 18k mikes. If you do go with spacers I would recommend only going 2" and then upgrading your UCAs. I went extreme and bought the Zone UCAs but lots have had success with Mevotechs. I'll be running the Bilsteins when I put on my 4" lift next year.
