RamHemi5.7 you haven't noticed any rubbing issues running a wider 305/45/22 tire up front on the control arms or suspension at all? Im running the stock tires on my R/T wheels on my 2012 Crew Cab and when i took off the front wheels I noticed a very small amount of rubbing so Im afraid to replace it with a wider tire when the time comes.

Hey yamaharacer, i havent experienced any rubbing at all with the 305's....im willing to pull my front wheels off to verify, but ill be dammed if they're rubbing. i havent noticed anything, noises or the like, and visually everything seems to be okay...

I've found that with my wife, if I just keep dropping hints about wanting to do something, eventually she will give in. Works in the bedroom, too. ;)

I love wheels with some color match in them. Just ties it all together IMO.

they arn't too bad..could be a little more sticky in the winter months though..dr traction is okay, but not great. ill try a different brand in a few months when i need new rubber.

and to answer the other poster about the size, i like a taller sidewall so the 305/40 provides that, not much, but it is a little noticeable.
