08 dodge ram laramie 35s or 37s
So been looking at tires for long time now and im going to purchase them within a few weeks.
I can get Mickey Thompson Baja ATZ 35x13.50x20 For $440 Stock rims
Or order new rims in an 18 which ive been looking at rims also but didnt want both at the same time and get MT baja atz 37x13.5x18 for $407
Or 35x13.5x18 for $357....
Do i go with 37 and do a small lift or go With 35s
WHAT TO DO WHAT TO DO???????

'08 is gonna be 3.55s or 3.92s, 3.73 not available in a 1500 out of the factory. I wasn't even happy turning 35s on 3.92s and went to 4.56s - HUGE difference!
With the coil over, IFS front you'll need more than a small lift to clear 37s and you'll need a lift or at least a level and the proper backspacing on the wheels just to clear 35s. I wouldn't even consider turning 37s with spindly, little CV axles, myself...
