Default Tire Fit

Has anyone put 315/70/17 size tires on their 03 or newer Ram, I have a 03 4x4 off road package and don't know if they will fit without a lift. I have raised the torsion bars already.

only thing you have to worry about is the 315, Place your fingers between the inside upper tire and the upper a-arm. My stock tires has liss than an inch, and they were..265? i had to get new rims with a 4.5" offset to accomodate for the 12.50" wide tires im running

I just got my 35x12.5x20s put on the factory 20s and the torsion bars cranked up about 2 inchs. No rubbing what so ever.

Damn, your truck looks good. I appreciate your input. I just got 315/70/17 BFG All terrains mounted and they fit great and they are on my stock 4x4 off road rims, so far, I haven't put any miles on them yet so we will see. I turned my torsion bars 7 full revolutions on each side. I had my front end aligned when they mounted the BFG's. I think the truck finally looks right. the tires actually mostly fill those big wheel wells. I will try to add a picture later. Thanks
