yes i agree with god ram it. if you try to put 35" on they will rub horribly. If you had a 4x4 you could probably get away with it. But to save the money and trouble of getting rid of the 35's after you find they rub just stick with 33 x 12.5

33's

By the way, what is the gear ratio of your rear-end? That is just as much a determining factor as how much room you have in your wheel wells

Should be a sticker under the hood in the top middle. Or you could email dodge and give them your vin and they will e-mail you a build sheet.
