Default Largest Tire Size??

Hey guys, I know this has been brought up many many times lol. Ive done a search and cant come up with any info for my setup. So I have an 05 1500 4X4, Front end Has the torsion Bars cranked up and I have an Add a leaf in the rear. I Have the stock 20's on it. I want to know the largest tire that I can run with:

a) the way it is now
b) putting a levelling kit on (dont know if this will give more than just torsion bars
c) putting wheel spacers in

I thought about putting a lift in but I think Im going to save that for an older truck that im thinking about building. I just want bigger rubber on mine.

Thanks for the help!

I am putting 35x12.5x20 on mine but its getting a level kit. I am told by a shop that does all dodges that a 12.5 will not rub the control arm but thats as wide as I can go without spacers ( which I don't want)

Okay thanks guys, Im thinking of going with a nitto trail grappler m/t in a 295 65 r20, which is a 35x11 basically so it should clear then.

Thanks again for the info!

Lol well it wont be for awhile, likely in the spring sometime. I can get a winter out of these tires, give me some more time to save up for the hole in my pocket these tires are going to cause! lol

Do the factory 20 inch rims have a different offset then the factory 17's? Just want to be certain thats all.
