I can't say I hate them cause I never had them...but they don't look very appealing...I like a good looking tire too...the zeons look awesome I think...nice side tread

With a 2 inch level you might rub at full lock left or right with 35's but they will fit

Ok now that dude is through with being butt hurt because I said alot of people have Grapp's, I would look into the BFG's too. A guy at work has em' and they are REALLY nice with a little lift.

What about the Nitto trail grapplers. They are a Mt with conservative tread wear and a bad ass look to them.

I will suggest the LT285/65R20 BFG All Terrain I just got mine in March and as always they ride great and have tons of traction. The advantage to this very expensive set is they will last about twice as long as Nitto's if properly rotated of course. I have got 60000 on one set of these and my dad had a set on a '98 Ram that got 80000 miles on them. They are just the best of both the traction and ride words. They do well in cold weather ice too unlike a Mud version. They ran me like $1500 bucks for this size in March and are 34.7 inches. No lift on my 2009 and don't rub or anything. Just my $.02. PS the LT275/65R20 is cheaper but backordered when I got mine so I went all out and got these.

How about you just stop bringing it up? Simple solution, instead of continuing to provoke another response. Unless you need to have the last word..

As for the thread's topic: I've had the NTG's since December and I don't have any problems with them...got about 2k miles on them now.

Fact 34.7 straight from the BF Goodrich website. Dodge has a lot of room right from the factory. I am not looking for a battle just letting the guy know a good solid tire option.

LT285/65R20/E
Overall Diameter 34.7

All-Terrain T/A KO | BFGoodrich Tires

That is pretty damn close to 35" and still had a lot of rim to look at.

The factory 20" Goodyear is a 33" tire also straight from their site.

Hey I am new here as you will see this is my first post. Every thought of running Mickey Thompson's? I ram on my 2008 Ram Mickey Thompson Baja Claws 325/50r20's on the stock 20's with the stock suspension. It fit fine I did have to put on wheel spacers but just a thought. With this new truck I plan on running Mickey Thompson MTZ 305/55r20's.
