Hi I'm new to this. I have a 2006 dodge ram 4x4 and i have seen most 2006 rams to have 265/75/17 tires on them but my truck has 245/75/17 and was looking to change them to 265. is there any body out there with the same as me. just wondering lucky55
Just watch the upper A-arms for clearance, especially with the stock rims that don't offer the backspacing most aftermarket wheels have. The older torsion bar front ends (02-05s) don't seem to have an issue with wider tires on stock rims, but the newer coil over 4x4s seem to have a good bit less clearance. You could go 33x11.5 with no problem, maybe even 34x11.5, but you start getting into the 12.5" wides, you need to consider a wheel upgrade to something with like 4.5" of backspacing...
