Need some opinions on Tires/wheels

[Fambreezy214]

Hello all, first post here. Just took delivery of my new Ram Limited earlier this week. Im trying to decide if I want to go with some A/T tires and keep the stock rims or if I should go to 22's with new tires. I think the stock 20's look a little to small for the truck but wonder if maybe some A/T's would help fill the wheel well a bit and give me the look I want without getting a whole new set of rims. Thoughts?

I'd leave it just as it sits. Just my opinion.....beautiful truck my friend.

Depends on the look you’re wanting to go for. Personally I like the size of the 20” wheels. I would say go with that and some 35’ A/Ts

All terrains in a slightly larger diameter will give you the look you're after without throwing off your speedometer too much.

Even if you go with 22's you'll need to maintain the same overall diameter so it won't fill the wheel wells any more than your 20's.

I kept my 20" oem wheels but went with 275/60/r20 Nitto Ridge Grapplers from tirebuyer.com

I suggest sticking with those stock wheels, and adding a subtle A/T to the mix.

I think that you would not like the ride of a 22 inch tire wheel combo. Plus the tires will be more money in a 22 inch. Your truck looks great as is but everyone likes some individualism.

I would definitely stick with the factory wheels. They look great and a lot better quality than most aftermarket wheels unless you plan on buying a high dollar premium after market wheel that’s not made in China I’d stick with factory. my good friend owns a tire shop and he tells me the story’s of how it’s almost impossible to get aftermart rims to balance and ride smooth to keep the truck from shaking and thee has been several brands he has gone thru multi rims to find one that oils even balance out.

For some, it's definitely "you get what you pay for".

Add in some are lugcentric and people try to throw those on without getting a ring to match the stock bore. Leads to vibration even if the tire is balanced.

This truck has an upgraded 22in wheel package that comes stock from the factory. It actually drove the same as far as I can tell as the one I ended up buying. Im not terribly worried about that I just think the wheels looks to small for this truck. Even with a thicker tire to fill up the wheel well a bit looks better but not as good as it does with the 22in wheel and A/T tire. This truck isn't going to be used off road much if any so i don't need a real think aggressive A/t or m/t but I like the way a moderate A/t and 22in wheel look on this truck so I think thats the way I'm gonna go. Appreciate the pics and tips.

I love the look of the 22" wheel, but I agree on the wheel/tire looking too small for the truck. It seems to mimic the look of a lift on the truck without the body being higher off the ground.
edit: I might have mis-read the op. Find a pic of the truck with 22" wheels/tires. You'll see that the 20"/original wheel/tire combo fills the wheel well substantially better than the 22".

Leave the factory wheels on. It looks good like it is

Well, I went ahead and put on some wheels and tires. Didn't want to go crazy but I really like the way this truck looks on 22's and some good looking A/T's.

 

[DRkNESS]

So what are the specs on the wheels and tires please ?

 

[Fambreezy214]

Wheels are OEM Denali Replicas. Tire size is 285/45r22

Agree, 22's look fitting on this big trucks. My 2011 I did a street 22", drove better than factory.
