Has anyone noticed if their front tires stick out further than the rears with a RC 6" lift? I have read about it in a few places, but they were older post from 2011. Not sure if this is still a problem. If so, what size spacer did you put on the rear to get them even? TIA

Although it is significantly less than it was many years ago, the front track width is wider than the rear from the factory. It's just not usually noticed until larger tires are installed.
Think the 4th gen's are only about 1"narrower in the rear now. I had a '99 ram, and it was 2" narrower in the rear from the factory. Also had a '82 chevy K20 many years ago, and it was a little over 2" wider in the front.

Sorry for rambling. I've got a RCX 6" lift, and with 2" spacers on all 4 wheels, my tires line up fairly evenly with my flares all the way around.

Thanks guys. I figured the tapered front end would give it that illusion as well. My wheels will be about even with my flares on my Laramie, so maybe it won't be too noticeable

I have a 6" RC lift on my 2015

Measured them when ordering spacers as I was going to even them up , but they measure the same distance apart ?
