New truck new tires

[xxpinske]

Hey guys new to the forum but on my third ram. Love these trucks and figured this was a good place for some good information. Just picked up a 2012 ram 1500 SLT. Has 17" rims on it with some tiny donut tires. Already bought rough country's 2.5" leveling kit for the front. Will I be able to clear 35's with this kit and wheel spacers? Or should I stick with 33's... No plans of an actual lift kit. Just the leveling. Thanks

what size wheel spacers are you looking to get. If you push the wheels out too far the 35's will rub.

Well I would only run wheel spacers if necessary to achieve the clearance for 35's. If I don't need them I won't use em. I guess the better question would have been what do i need to do to be able to run 35x12.5x17

definitely install the 2.5" level kit and maybe 1/4" wheel spacers. It mainly depends on what the offset/backspacing is on the wheels.
