Default 95 ram 4x4 want to get 15' rims/35" tires?

Any suggestions for tires and wheels for a 95 dodge ram 4x4with 6in lift. 3susp and 3 body.

I wanted to go to 15" to get the floatation sizes such as the 35" -They will work I assume?

Thanks
Harold

I don't think you'd clear the calipers. I could be wrong.


Good luck with your ride.

No one else has 35/12.50/15s on a 95 ram 4x4?

I posted a question before about what size I should go with to fill the 6 inches of lift and didnt get much response.

I believe it's the later model dual piston calipers that the 15" rims are a crap shoot on. Singles are probably a go.

Will 35x1250s fit on the 15x8?

You may rub a little, but just get a sledge hammer and pound that sucker in. I have 10 inches of lift, 6 inch susp 4 inch body, had 35X14.50X15 swamp suckers, then changed to 37X14.50X15 toyo open country MT's. They rubbed a touch but I hit it down with a sledge now I am fine. Won't have a problem with the calipers.

you'll be fine with 15's on your year of dodge, I believe the changed the calipers to dual in 98 or 99 and that's when you have to go to a 16, you can use 15's but you'll have to grind the caliper. 20dodge01 has 15's on his 2001. 35x12.50x15 will work great with your 15x8 rims. you shouldn't run into any problems with rubbing
