My friend's running 35" RT's on the AEV wheels and a 3" Kore lift. No rub anywhere. 37's would probably require some of Thuren's bent arms to get the full steering sweep.
Lets see some full size pictures...

Yeah they rub the control arms, no surprise with the stock steelies. Ill take the tire size any day over a smaller tire that doesnt rub just for a tiny bit of turning radius. Thats the only place though. I dont run a swaybar so no worries there. It flexes pretty hard and doesnt rub anywhere else. If I keep the truck and it gets more mods, one of the first will be control arms. Id also like to do some trailready wheels so I can pick the exact width and offset I want.

Me and Ben The Gladiator deer hunting near Bagdad AZ last weekend.......
Good to see Ben is up and at it. Hope you had a good hunt and be looking for an Old Iron run thread coming soon. Ben would fit right in.

Here is a couple pictures from last summers trip through the Rockies.
Was this "Fins and Things" trail? Were you able to complete the whole trail and was there significant scraping? I am sure the ram is plenty capable, and it looks like you have the right tire choice for the job, just curious about approach/breakover/departure angles. Always happy to see full size trucks on trails like this!

Reasoning/Purpose for the truck? I gotta ask since I think it's awesome to see more and more members going to the 4thGen Rams. Now I don't feel like my decision in 2013 was so off-the-wall anymore. CrewCab?? 4wd or not?
Couple of shots of my 2012 Ram 1500 in Moab last weekend.
Heeheehee! NICE! Gotta show this to someone since they didn't believe me when I said you can make it through most of the usual stuff, just not the bigger ledges.
Oh, you scrape certain stuff, the crossmember and trans-shield first and foremost. I'm still waiting on someone to make a flatter setup that's a little stronger. The front bumper airdam and the trailer hitch are the next ones. If you wanna play in MOAB with a 1500 the first thing anyone should consider at the least is a leveling kit.
Avis, nice to see it looks like you did like I did, Quad versus Crew Cab?
I can't remember if I posted this in here yet, mine when still "new".

:sombrero: I'm not sure, it seems the 4th gen RAMs seem to be/have so much more appeal and options-
Yeah mine is 4wd/w the fairly new 4auto(AWD) selection and it's a crew cab-
The reason I gotit was, after 8 years of having/using/playing with my jeep--I was getting a little tired of the old girl and since I've been with Chrysler for several lifetimes--I wanted the new RAM/another HEMI(395hp) and the new 8spd auto-so, this is what I got and what a truck--
I've still got my Ford Ranger, for little stuffWow1
That's a fine looker you got too
