Height is fine, width will probably be an issue on the stock rim. The backspacing of the stock rim is just terrible for a wide tire.

If you have an 07 (as I am inferring from your name) you will not fit without spacers. read Dirty Dog's tire fitment thread.

Dodge Ram 1500 2wd 2002-2008
stock truck/wheels...you can fit 33's no problems(go bigger and you need a 2"lift/level)
2"+lift w/stock wheels....fit up to 35" no problems
5.5"-4.5" backspacing is ideal for anything larger/wider than 33"/12"
4"+ lift fitment will vary, use the above link and Search to find your size.


Dodge Ram 1500 4wd 2006-2008
Stock everything...fitment is limited to width on these trucks more than height with stock wheels. 34" x 11.5" is the absolute widest possible! Any wider and tire contacts upper a-arm balljoint.
stock wheels w/1/4" spacers will fit 35" x 12". They WILL NOT fit 35" x12.5" as that extra .5" makes the difference. Your tire will be about 1/4" away from the ballljoint with a 34" x 12" tire WITH 1/4" spacers. Fitment is up to you. Don't hate if they don't fit.
5.5"-4.5" backspaced wheels will allow 35"x12.5" tires silght rub at full lock.
aftermarket wheels as above PLUS 2"+ lift/level will fit 36's no problems(standard width of 12.5)

Dodge Ram 2500 2002-2008
Fit up to 34's on stock everything.
35's will scrub at full lock on stock everything
2"+lift/level will clear 35's no rubbing at all.
I deleted parts of his post to be concise, but if you have other questions i suggest reading the post in it's entirety.
