So i have a 3 inch body lift that should be coming it soon. Tomorrow or Monday atop my 5 inch rough country lift


So my question to you guys is What is a good offroad type tire?


I want a good mud tire but that can run good on road. Mickey Thompsons would be best(can get them cheaper)

I have been told by others on here that 40s would fit no problem without bumper trimming, do you agree or disagree

 

Yr at the max for tire size for yr axles. What about gears?

 

my axles will be upgraded soon.

The body lift is on its way so im going to put it in and put tires with the rims i got on then ill get the new rims and axles since the axles will most likely be 8 lug

 

Dana 60 front and 70 rear out of a 2500? Your looking at 40? Well have you regeared for you stock 3.55? You are going to need 4.88 for 37 and 40!! Is going to be 5.13 your going to need a new carrier as well.

 

Well, the Danas from a 2500 will usually be 4.10s already. But yeah, for that big of tires, higher than 4.10s would be better.

 

Not true. My friends 5.9 gas 2500 has 3.55 and one of my buddys has a 2500 cummins and he has 3.55. At least his cummins in a stick.

 

The diesels were a little bit different. They didn't need help with take off and towing capacity.

Probably wanna go 5.38 for 40s. Maybe even lower if you plan on going 44s later on. 44s are about the limit of 1-ton axels.

 

Very true they had the motor and tranny to back them up.

 

Mickey Thompson MTZ ...I have a 1500 with 5" suspension and 3" body lift and 4:56 gears . the Mickeys are quiet on the road and offer great traction off road....I would recommend them to anybody
