New wheels for 2015 ram

[Ckyuv]

So I recently purchased a new 1500 2wd lone star edition. I already ordered a leveling kit and will install it within a week or so. I was looking to order the 20" kmc rockstar wheels but when I go to pick the wheel I am to choose +10 or +35 offset. Not sure I understand it well enough to know what I should get? I'm looking to put the Kevlar wrangler a/t on there but keep the same size at stock.

Stock 20" X 9" wheels are +19 . . . +35 will never fit, not sure why they would even make them . . . +10's will be fine for stock, or 1 or 2 size upgrade . . . +10 moves the tire out by just under 3/8" . . . In the tire you are looking at, other than being expensive as hell, 285/60R20 would be a nice upgrade for your new setup . . . If you are staying with the stock P275/60R20 size, there are a tone of better/cheaper options than Goodyear unless you get some killer discount . . . When you say leveling kit, you mean a spacer kit ? . . . Most people round here level with Bilsteins . . . Specially with the 14/15 UCA issues . . . It's just a better way to level that won't ruin your ride . . . Just thought I'd throw some options at you . . . Good luck . . . Post pics

Guess I'll go with the +10 then thanks a ton! As far as the lift goes, I got the traxda 604080 leveling kit. It's spacers. I'd love to get the bilstein as that's what I ran on every truck in the past but no one seems to make anything for a 2015. Im not sure what the big difference is between 2015 and 2014.
As far as tires I'll prob go with the 285/60/r20 good years. On my 2008 that I just traded in I had the good years and they lasted me about 80k miles. What kind of problems do the 14/15 have? I haven't seen anything about uca problems yet but then again when I was washing the truck for the first time yesterday I noticed I had fake chrome wheels....

Cant help with the question, but welcome to the forum and the truck!

Thanks it's nice to have a new truck again! Hopefully it'll be a little bigger and better lookin soon!

yeah I know the feeling! I have to wait till next year to do my lift and tires, and the wait is killing me!

Any level kit much over 2", especially spacer types, and ball joints have been known to start poppin out of place . . . Plenty of threads on it . . . Unless you have air suspension, I know of no reason why you can't use 2014 Bilsteins . . . Don't feel bad about your wheels, plastic chrome clad glued to a casting is pretty common . . . Chargers, Challengers . . . All the same . . . Ford and Chevy do it too . . . I kept mine and just run em in these crappy Ohio winters

Never mind in the Bilstein info ... I just noticed, you are 2WD
