Hey guys. I have an 06 Ram 2500 QC/LB Hemi. I read all over the place that with some leveling kits you can fit 35's and others only 33's. Does anyone know what you can fit? I want to get 35's under it but I can't figure out if any leveling kit will allow it. I've seen 2'' all the up to 3 1/2''. Any advice would be greatly appretiated. Thanks.

I believe Wendy has a 2.5 level with either the 33s or 35s I can not say for sure. Im willing to bet she will see this thread in a few and help ya out bud.

you have a 2500 ... if its a 4x4 you can fit 35's with no level . 2500's are 2-3" taller stock than a 1500

I had 35's on stock before I lifted no issues . Then I added a 2.5" level and could fit 37's now Im running a 6" lift back to 35's for total flex

Awesome. Thanks a lot. They were saying it all depended on the trim whether what size tire would fit but of course they didn't say which ones. Well new 35's for me then!!!!!

As long as you stick with a 35x12.50 you will be fine any wider they will rub

What I might do is buy 315/ 70's instead. Much cheaper.

A 315/70 is just a metric 35. I'm running 317/75's on mine and they measure to be a 34.6 x 12.4

Yeah, I'm going to keep stock rims. I just want a little more height.
