i just installed a 2.5 " leveling kit on mine, i chose it because i measured the back fender compared to the front and they where a 3" difference so i got the 2.5"..... havent got pics posted yet waiting to install the 305/70/17 next week.... 34" tall...

I really only get rubbing when I full lock on a slope.

AND your 35's were used when you put them on, I promise you that if you put a new pair of 35" mud graps or toyo mt's you would have more rubbing due to the side lugs on this type of tire, plus they are bigger beause they are not used!!!

thanks guys...yea, thats what I was shooting at is every truck is different, but wanted a clear answer for us 06-08 2wd guys out there...as for my level kit, yea I chose the 2.5" due to a 2" or lower not actually leveling the truck. the 2.5" leveled it perfectly in my opinion...but the tires I have on my truck are the Fierce Attitudes, yea the name is a bit cheesy but hey, at 200 bucks a tire for a "35" thats a heck of a deal...

200 bux. did you get them on a military base? they seem to be alot cheaper there than anywhere else. I know a few people that bought there 35's on base and they were about 200 a pop which is HALF the price of mine.

Im pretty sure leveling a 2wd ram and a 4wd ram are 2 totally seperate things. Ive been told that 35s on a leveled 4wd ram is possible but you will need more than a level on a 2wd ram to stop the rubbing.

Looks good tho!

200 bucks a tire? im looking forward to seeing the performance, cause I might be getting them after summer

What leveling kit did you get? and do you have any of the UCA/spring bucket contact? I have a Daystar 2in and its pretty bad...I wanna see some pics of your suspension at full lock lol

In any case, it looks DAMN good

Matt99 - yes I do have UCA and spring bucket contact, but its only when I go over decent size bumps. other than that, its good. i got the daystar 2.5" level kit off autotrucktoys. com
