I have a 2017 1500 with a 5.7 Hemi and runs on 275/60r20 tires stock. I am installing a 2" leveling kit on the front. My questions is will I be able to run 275/65r20 (about 1" taller) without any potential rubbing? I plan to use the stock rims. Thoughts??

Plug in the two tire sizes here to see what the dimensional differences are.

Tire Size Calculator

You can then measure your wheelwell opening and inside dimensions to get a better idea.

Another way is to contact a local tire shop about fitment.

Yes. You’ll be fine with stock wheels and 275/65r20. If you go wider some people have issues rubbing the upper control arm and use 10mm hubcentric spacers to clear but you should be fine.

They will fit just fine. I have Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs in that size, LT275/65R20 with the stock wheels on my 2013 Sport. No issues.

2017 Ram 1500 AWD stock rims with 275 60 20 wildpeak. 3in RC M1 struts and RC UCA. About a half in gap between tire and UCA. Should this gap be larger?
