I have been wanting 35s bad but i havent even though will my v6 01 ram 1500 2wd even push 35x12.5 with decent gas mileage

 

with stock gears, hell no. If u regear it then yes it will bring it back to stock but thats $$$$$ money,

 

its pushes 31s now no problem why are 35s so different?

 

i just put 35's on my truck yesterday i havea 98v8 318 and still have the stock gears in there but there is a noticeable loss of power, i plan to change them out pretty quick for some 4.11's. so your v6 will probably turn them but you wont be setting any speed records and you will be using more fuel and having a 2wd its even cheaper for you to change them out

 

The rolling Distance and the weight. A 35 weighs alot pick one up someday. The overall height is only 4 inches higher but the distance traveledto make one revolution is helluva alot more.

 

look at my hummer h3 in my siggy...It's an 06 so it has the 3.5L 5 cyl and I have had 35's on it for a year now with no problems. Don't see why your v6 ram would have a problem. All the little import trucks and jeeps you see on the road with 35's have smaller motors than your ram....you'll be fine.

 

Had a 99 ram 1500 3.9L. Ran 315 MTR's with 4:10 gears, auburn Limited slip, MSD 6, headers, flow, trans cooler, cold air intake, and royal purple in diff and engine. The guy I sold it to got 21 mpg on his way to Chicago. Pulled a full size u-hual car trailer with a VW on it from Waco, TX to Houston and used a little more than 1/2 tank. It even pulled good through the Texas hills.

 

gears are needed for pulling this off.

 

It won't be fine... My truck sucks with my stock gears and 35's. I need to get off my butt and put my gears in. Are you planning on lifting the truck up also???

 

it's all personal preferance I guess. I've got35's on my h3 with stock gears and 35's on my JK rubicon with stock gears and have no problems with any of them. I also don't expectto race many cars off the line either.
