Just got back from shop. Before (1.75” level kit and 255/75R20s) and after (6” RC and 35x12.50x20 Crosswinds). Love the look but not a fan of the slight rake, was hoping it would be level (camera is turned a bit in the after pic). Hopefully the rear settles a bit otherwise may add something in the front.

No one with 37s cares about MPG ;)
Well…. There’s “I get 4 mpg and i don’t care” and then there’s “I used to get 17 mpg but now I’m only getting 15 mpg.” I’m definitely going to be the second lol. I’m actually averaging roughly 17mpg with my ram 1500 4x4 with aftermarket exhaust. 5.7

Beautiful stance! Looks great. How is it getting in and out? Must be a hassle lol
Since my previous tires were smaller than stock (put on by previous owner) it is quite a hike up there now lol. First time my wife got in she commented about it, then forgot about it when she went to get out… almost “broke her back” lol

I have a big trip coming up, ill keep you guys posted on what I get.
I’ll chime in on mpg since I just made a change and a big trip. I was running 275/55/20s (31.9”) and getting ~18 mpg around town and ~21 mpg on highway.

Just lifted and put 35s on and took a 500 mile trip right after, averaged about 14 mpg on the highway to get here (family of 4 plus a bunch of suitcases and gear in the bed). And a very noticeable difference in acceleration and pickup esp at highway speeds (hills etc). Expected that though, just saying. Towing a boat back, so I’m sure that’ll be cut in half lol

Regearing for the tire size difference is ideal. My truck was a dog with 3:55 gears and 37s. I swapped out the 3:55 for 4:56 and night and day difference. I highly recommend anyone using the bigger tires to think of regearing to Match.

Look at all that meat! ;) Nice look brother, welcome to the lifted family.
Those 17s look great with the 37's do you get any tire flex when steering suddenly at higher speeds? I've heard that can happen with big tires and a smaller rim. Just curious.
Nice Build man, keep us updated on your progresses!
