Hey folks I’m new to this forum but I needed some advice. I want to get some 35 inch tires for my ram but wanted to know what else I need to do and what price range am I looking at. I have 20 inch wheels already on the truck. I’m new to whole lift thing so just wanted to hear from people who know what they’re talking about. Thanks

:welcome:

Back during the summer of 2019 I did a Bils adjustable 5100s (set at 2.8) along with JBA UCAs and SuspensionMAXX end links up front. On the rear I have Bils 5100s, TUFFTRUCK TC-1211 springs, along with Core 4x4 UCAs, LCAs, panhard bar, and end links. I wasn't sure about setting the front to 2.8, but it actually leveled my truck nicely. Before doing the level I was running 305/55/20s on 20x9 wheels and added the smooth fender flares so it would look near flush. I went to my current 20x10 wheels about a year ago and finally went to 35x12.5 in November. At stock height I found the most you can safely go is 305/55/20. Here's how she sits now.

There's plenty of videos out there showing you how to do it yourself. Here's the one I used as a reference.

Don't be afraid to ask questions.

Great info @MAJ_Charlie but guys with 2wd and ones with HD trucks are getting confused thinking that the adjustable bilsteins are the easy level. which they are but unfortunately only compatible with the 4x4 1500's. Your truck looks great and the parts you chose were suburb.
