My 05 with 20's will spin in the rain like it's on ice, but on dry the Goodyears stick like glue, unless you power brake. I agree, with 3.92's one would think it would do nothing but spin.

i must say that when the wife brought her home to me, the first thing i did was take her out and stomp on it. with the stock tires (245/17s i believe) and the open diff. all she did was chirp. i was devastated, so i took her back to the stealership and told them to put the LSD in there. (hate open diffs) the next day i had the 33" BFG T/A KOs put on. obviously no wheel spin at all. (3.55s in the rear. I think im the only one that got them). since then with the improvements of CAI, premium fuel and 180 thermostat she'll turn the tires a couple of times with no brake before she hooks up. with brake shell burn em quite a distance. the next upgrades are synthetic oil, programmer and 4.56s. with that i have no reservations that she'll cook em with ease

I drive a 2001 Ram 2500 4x4 with the 5.9 Magnum and that thing wont spin the tires at all no matter how hard I try

but my 2008 Ram 1500 4x2 with the 5.7 Hemi spins only the passenger side rear tire, I guess this is a good thing since I would only have to replace one tire and not two
