I have a 2003 Ram 1500 2wd, have 17 in rims with new BFGoodrich AT tires, my question is how much weight do i want to put in the bed? Plenty of snow days here in Ohio
At least 2 50# bags of sand over each wheel well. I use 4 because I have a RCSB w/ tow pkg. so I'm light on the rear wheels. You've got good tires to never had a problem last winter with my BFG's.
when i had my 02 4x4 QC i had about 600lbs in the back right over the rear axle...but i would say 200 total would be good, but i'd rather have more lol
I cant remember who said it before, but they talked about five gallon buckets w/ water. Then if you dont need the weight you can just dump the water out and be done... Hope this helps.

Thats a good idea, except if I don't need the weight I will need a hammer to get the ice out of my bucket
