On my 2009 ram 2500 I was thinking about getting a 6" lift and throw on some 37" Tires and 22x14 Fuel Hostage wheels. I need some opinions if this would look good, should I go bigger lift of if I should get 35" tires. Please give me your guys opinions!!!

with just a 6inch and 14inch wide wheels your going to have rubbing issues. there is a member on here with 12inch wide and a 6inch lift and had to do some trimming.

Add a 3inch BL to that and you should be good!

What about 35s with 14" wide? Still have to do some trimming tho right?

I think 37's will be beautiful. I like the stuffed look more than the open wheel well look. Hostages look great, I'll have pictures of 20's with 35's tomorrow.

Bigger is better ! Me personally I'd go 18 or 20" ×14 , I think the small diameter with the DEEEEP wheels look better and the big rubber makes everything look bigger , the tires and the lift kit .
I remember reading about light rubbing issues with a guy on here with 20×14s but I think he had a 1500 Ram ? I could be wrong .

I SHOT IT WITH MY P.S.E. EVO MAX !!!!

Personally, I'd go with a narrower wheel and 37s. A 14 inch wide wheel is gonna require a lot more lift to fit a 35 or 37 inch tall tire than a 9 or 10 inch wide wheel.

Someone just posted on here 37s killed their gas mileage. They went from 14 mpg to 7.5 mpg. If that matters.

any bigger than 37s and kiss daily driver good bye. Thats my .02. a 14 in wide tire in my opinion, is absurd and unnecessary. At most go 12. and you will be fine with just a 6 in
