Need new tires

[liftedpsd2010]

Was going to post this in the lifted forum but I’m not really lifted. I have a 2017 cc 2wd hemi. At 19k miles the stock tires are already shot. I have a leveling kit and want to keep the stock rims. I am looking at the stock size 275/60r20 nitto ridge grapplers or 33” nitto ridge grapplers or 33” nitto ridge grapplers. Any pics or suggestions would be greatly appreciate.

The stock 275/60/20 are 33” also, so it seems like all of your options are pointing in one direction. Nitto ridge grapplers!

Yeah, not sure what your asking here...ditto above reply...stock size is 33”...

Trail Grapplers!

I have 275/70/18s BFG A/T TA KOs on my truck.

If you want to keep your good gas mileage, replace with stock tires. If you put a heavier tire on, your fuel economy will go down. The bigger and heavier, the worse you gas mileage gets; if you're worried about mpg.

I believe the 275/60 aren’t as wide that’s why I also included those 33x12.50s. Stock size ridge grapplers are like 830. 33x12.59 ridge graps are 1400 and mud graps are about 50-75 more.

Right, if you had posted 33x12.5 we wouldve understood it. The way it was posted it read you were comparing the same tire in the same size...keep in mind the metric sizes are true where the standard sizes may be “close” to that measurement of 33”. Just find out which 20’s you have and whether they are 9” wide or 8” wide. My tires are metric and 12-12.5” wide. I have a slight rub on track bar at full lock. Your stock 20’s no matter width will have a +19mm offset. My aftermarket 20x9’s are +18 mm. So I rub slightly with mine and I am 1mm further away, your rub could be negligible lime mine or worse or none.

Sorry about that. So you are saying with 33x12.50 I will probably rub? I really wanted mud grapplers but looks like I’ll be getting stock sized ridge grapplers.

Maybe. It depends on if he tires have meaty sidewall lugs etc. Best advice is to google “tire size comparison” and throw in all comparisons. It will give approx measurements.

Yea for sure the mud grapplers have side lugs and even the ridge have them. I just wanted something more pronounced but I think I’ll just get 275/60/20 ridge grapplers. It’ll save me quite a bit of money.

Give 295/60/20 a look. Think you would be safer there. A bit taller, but it gets you wider.

He is a link to compare tire sizes if that helps you at all.

That size should clear fine no problem. Like the above posts, some trucks rub w/305/55 some don't. The tires just look badass on our Rams even with stock offsets.

Even on a 2wd they should fit? I do have a leveling kit.

Yes, a leveled 2wd should easily handle the 33.9x11.6 or 295/60. Its only .9 inches taller and .8 wider I think. I would say youd prob be ok with 305/55 too. Mine rubs with WildPeaks but it is a minor rub at full, at speed, and its on a round trackbar. This is a years worth of rub here in this pic, just where it shiny, so you know this isnt even daily. Negligible in my opinion.

I stayed stock with the 33 20"s added Falken Wildpeaks...

How do you like yours?

 

[Mbrigh3]

I love them. My trucks will only have this tire from now on. I wish I had 35"s sometimes but I cant justify the price point. Overall I am happy with the stock size. The tires themselves though are perfection.

 

[liftedpsd2010]

Thanks I’ll post some pics on when I get them installed.
