My first post!

2017 Ram 1500 Big Horn 4x4
I have the following parts but not yet installed:
Bilsteins set at 2.1"
20x9 wheels w/ 34.1" tall x 11.25" wide tires (mounted)
Wheel backspacing is 5.75" measured from inside mounting surface to edge of wheel (positive offset?)
Tires measure 6.375" from inside mounting surface of wheel to backside edge of tire

Looking at the very informative! tacked post on leveling and doing the numbers, IF these will fit my truck without rubbing somewhere, they will be just about flush with the fenders. I was hoping to have a slightly aggressive look.

What do you all say about how much, if any, the tires will extend beyond the fenders?
Thanks TBTn7

The wheels actually match stock 20x9 wheel specs so you are not going to be sticking out much further than stock tire’s much at all.

What is the advertised size of the tire?

Sounds like a 285/65/20 tire so yes the should fit just fine and no you wont have an aggressive stance with stock wheels. Could always get a set of wheel spacers though.

Spacers don't excite me but that may be my only option at this point. Thanks

Yea you will be set up just like any stock ram with the 20’s. Only difference is a taller mud tire. Not saying the mud tire won’t look good and aggressive...just won’t give you any wider stance
