Thanks brotha, For some reason your lift makes those tires look small Hahahaha but not in a bad way cause it looks great, but it could be the pro comp lift it self as I have it and it makes my 35s look small. I kinda regret not getting 37s but oh well yours and mine still look good.
You’re not kidding. If these were just 1,000miles old I’d be swapping for 37s. When they’re all worn out there’s no way I’m not going bigger.

I wonder if I’ll be able to keep everything as it is or if I’ll have to bump the Bilsteins up more for 37s. It looks like there’s some good room left so maybe no changes necessary?

The only thing I debating adjusting is going up to some 2” BORA spacers on the wheels.

Looks great, I like those flares
Thanks I appreciate it!

I have them on for now to see if I like them but before I really start driving it I’m going to do the masking tape/xpel edge guard along the lines the flares touch any paint on the truck so I have the option of removing them/re-installing wheneve I want without paint damage

I hear you...... I debated about the 2” spacers as well but I can’t see my self spending more money on spacers again these boras are just expensive for spacers IMO. I’m pretty happy with my 1.75” spacers for now I’m not even sure if I’ll keep my stock wheels on forever knowing me I’ll switch them out in the future for some aftermarket ones once I get bored of the look.

Great looking rigs guys.....and as someone else mentioned, I was also amazed at how good the stock Sport 20's look with a lift. I use them with stock width Duratracs for winter and was second guessing buying the Rockstars with 35's for my summer set.

Anyway, I've got 4" Superlift with 275-65-20 Duratracs and 1.5" Bora spacers.

Come on now boys....read the thread title

I ain’t mad atcha but it does suck when people are looking for something and have to sift through random unrelated things for what they’re actually looking for.

There’s probably a thousand other threads your trucks would fit nicely in but I see no stock wheels in those pics....just saying.

You should be just fine with the lift as it sits to go 37s. Remember you are only really picking up 1" all the way around. You could run into issues if you go with a wider tire then what your 35 is. But they make 12.50 37s

great thread just went through the whole thing.I have the horrible 20" PVD chrome wheels and have been looking at aftermarket but really didnt see anything the blew me away,was looking for more of a brushed aluminum like my AR Stic 5's on my 01 Ram.However I am really liking the sport wheels.No bigger than 35's which I think will go great with my 3.92 rear

Going to lift this with a 4” Superlift & run the Laramie 6 spoke OEM wheels. Just worried about tire fitment with 35x12.5-20 or 325/60-20. Any body have any thoughts on wether it’ll clear the Superlift aftermarket spindle and not rub? Guess that all depends on the tire I presume, maybe use Bora wheel spacers? Like 1.5”. The truck is a ‘13 Outdoors man, and I still don’t know what that exactly means for ride height. Superlift states it needs an additional part with their 4” lift. I don’t know and Superlift tells me the front coil maybe different from Ram? I wish they had more confidence in knowing if it was the coil or not.
Any thoughts??

My 35’s clear with no spacers. Running 4” Superlift with same rims. They are close to the knuckle but they have not rubbed anywhere 17k miles and counting.

325’s will not fit without a spacer...........heck alot of 35’s dont. Check the tire manufacturers specs and make sure to calculate for a 9” wide rim. Most times a 35 x 12.50 x 20 will have soecs using a 10” wide rim but as a general rule for every 5” change in rim width, the tires section width changes by .2”.

For example 35x12.50x20 mounted on 20x10 will equal about 34.5” tall and 12.5” wide. On your 20x9 rim the tire will be about 12.1” wide which is about the max width without hitting the knuckle.

As for the front coil, the Outdoorsman and TX4 truck supposedly had about 3/4” higher ride height.......cant remember the 3 digit sales code

Hope that helps and EXCELLENT rim choice!

Here is my 11 with Bils. Clip is at the second from the top. Fender well to fender well, I have 1.125" forward rake. The bottom of the tow hook is 20" from the floor.


I've only driven it 5 miles so far, but you really feel the road, now. However, I went over a RRtrack crossing, and it was smoother than before. I'll have to drive it more to give an accurate assessment. But so far, so good.
