How yall doing?

I'm very new to Ram 2500 squad, just bought my self a 2018 RAM 2500.
There are few questions I would like to ask, if yall can help me out.

Does any one know if any Brembo brake caliper and rotors will fit this truck? If not Wilwood?

I came across BAER company? how are they?

Wheels&tires, what is a good wheel size? 20x10 or 20x9? 18x9? 18x10? (trying to have it for off road) what is some good tires that does the job?

Welcome to RamForum.

Baer makes an excellent brake package. Not sure if Baer, Brembo or Wilwood has a setup for our trucks. I'd contact them directly for more information.

As far as wheels, I run an 18 x 9 wheel with +12 mm offset and 35 x 12.50R18 BF Goodrich KO2 tires. I also have a 2.5" leveling kit with a shock relocation bracket. It looks like this:

As far as tires are concerned, there are lots of choices. Go to the 4th Gen Exterior section of the forum and check out the threads there. Lots of good information & pics of wheels, tires, etc...

Good luck with the upgrades.

For brakes & rotors check out Power Stop Brakes, or R1 Concepts if you want a little higher end. For wheels it's a matter of preference, but I'm getting 20x9 Fuel wheels and 35" Nitto Ridge Grapplers for my 2500 this spring. Good luck with your build!

I haven't heard of Baer brakes before, and now I know why, they don't make anything for the Ram 2500's.
