Getting New Wheels and Tires
It's been a while, but I've decieded to go with some aftermarket wheels to upgrade my Ram. I am thinking upon a 16x10 wheel all around. Summit Racing part # SUM-164-6185P, with a 4.25 inch back spacing and -32mm offset . Going with a 315/75R16 tire. Which is around 34.5 inch tire by 12 inch wide. Either a Cooper ATR or a BF Goodrich A/T KO. I'm doing a 1 inch block on the rear axle. My leveling kit made my front end alittle higher than the rear. Wanted to know if there's anybody done this before?

With only a leveling kit up front and 35's with 10" wide wheels, I can amost guarentee you will getting rubbing on the rear of the front fender while turning. You would have a better chance with an 8" wide wheel.
Also, considering your gearing, I would recommend just getting a 305x70x16 tire instead. I have the same gears and have ran a 35" tire before... it sucks. That size tire would also fit the lift much better.
Just my opinion.
Oh, and I recommend the BFG AT over the coop's. They will cost more, but they will also last a lot longer.

Yea I can see them rubbing. One more thing I know yr form N.C. and there is some jacked up trucks down there(I got the the outer banks 1 a yr) but if yr tires stick out to far they might not pass for inspection. I'm sure its not a big thing at all down there but up here in PA it is. My 16X8 with a 4.03 it almost didnt pass but my dads good friends with the guy.
