I have an 03 1500 Hemi 4x4 with the Laramie package. I bought the 1.5-2" leveling kit (torsion keys) from Rough Country and I am going to be getting it put on this week. I was wondering if someone could help me with how big of tires I can go with that. I don't know how big i can go with the stock rims or how small of rims I could get with a bigger tire.

17" wheel is the smallest you can go.
I would say the most you could squeeze is a 305 but you may have some minimal rubbing
What size wheel do you have no and are you trying to stick with it?

Welcome to the forum.

Diameter-wise, you might be able to squeeze 35's, but I'd prolly say you'd be safe at 34's. I run 34's on a 2.5 level.

I agree, I think you can run 35's, A lot of mud tires SAY they're 35s, but when actually measured out, they're a lil smaller,

yea if you like the stuffed look you can run 35's once you are leveled. Looks like you have the stock 20's on there so you could fit 35x12.5x20(probably the max right there)
