Nice! 37's will look great on there.

i already have the tires went with 37x12.5x20's i had the wheels but they were only a -12mm offset and once the tires were on the wheels and the truck the rubber was rubbing on the spindles in the front, so back to stockers, ordered new wheels last night -44 offset should have no issues this time wheels should be here mid week:)

Be aware that the Mud Grapplers make a lot more road noise. I had Trail Grapplers and there's noise, but in a way you expect. Mud Grapplers have this high sound, that doesn't suite a Ram! I tried different pressure front and rear, but no real difference...
Costly, but I think I'm going to replace them after 500 miles...

Yeah they sound like a b52 bomber. Pffft... doesn't suit a Ram, then what do they suit? A chevy?!

I'm just a tad confused on your front setup you said you didn't use strut spacers, but I think you meant coil spacers but not sure. Cuz it would make sense removing the coil spacers when installing the adjustable shocks.

Unless the 12 kit is very different than the 09-11 which I know there are variances it's the shocks etc. can you take a pic through the fender well? Just want to see the setup

Am I reading this correctly?
Are you truly considering on going larger? Or simply grabbing Mud Grapplers in 35's?
