Seriously glad I caught your thread when you posted. Drives amazing. New Bilsteins always feel good. Easily as good or better than pre-lift. They seriously know their engineering at AEV. Now off to run Schnebly Hill in Sedona tomorrow to test it all out.

Glad I could help!! do you feel the sway isn’t he rear end that I feel in mine? Maybe our roads just suck here but it drives me nuts. Can’t wait to get a new rear sway bar.

Honestly it isn’t as noticeable as I expected with the tent up high. I will still be swapping it out but for now it’s no crisis. Just something of interest to correct in the future. I did drive it home with 150-200 lbs of stuff in the bed so that may have helped. Will see yet!

To anyone interested in selling my AEV wheels with tires. I’ve posted in the for sale section.

Didn’t think to get pics of the truck. It was damn cold. Ran all the forest roads and rock gardens nonissue. Freaking great ride.

What rims are you getting?

Tires

What rims are you getting?

I’m going back to stock 20x9 sport wheels but in black with 35x12.5r20 BFG AT KO2s.

 

[DamnRam1500]

This is the wheel and tire package. I’m going to use 1/4” spacers on the front like I did before the lift.

The sport wheels will look great

I agree, I never should have sold my polished sport wheels.

 

[RJL1]

Gonna look good. I agree. I like the stock 20" rims on my Big Horn. When I finally lift it I'm keeping them.

That’s nothing, my buddy has 22s and 35s and spends $500 a tire. I’m assuming you’re not using large wheels but maybe 17s which are usually more affordable.

Yeah the highest I'll go in any truck is 17s. I like the bigger sidewall for airing down. I paid $1050 for 4 40 13.50 17. Beadlocks for 4 was $750. Shipping was $200??

It’s crazy how much more they charge for less rubber when you have a larger wheels. I’m never going to do more than basic trails with this truck if I want to Wheeling rig again I’d buy another jeep.

 

[ram1500rsm]

That's one of the reasons i also stay with 17" wheel setups more rubber for less price, then weight, offroad performance, many more choices available in AT or MT etc etc. My current tires were $215 each a few months back on discount, now $240. My KO2's on 37x12.5x17 were $340 each. Typically i'd like to stay around $250 unless i can't find a good discount or decide what tire to go with. Toyo AT3 in 315/70/17 are $266, Crazy the Falken AT3 are now $295 , i paid $200 for them when i bought my set couple of years ago.

Here she is with her new satin black 20x9 sport wheels.

I’m officially in love with my truck all over again. I never should have sold my polished sport wheels. I should have just had them painted.
