nah the biggest you can go with a stock suspension would be 31s, you can get 33s with a levelin kit, but you run the risk of rubbin if your in a tight spot, but i dont think you do much crawling in your stock ram....

Wrong.

The stock 20's are equivalent to 33's and 35's will fit nicely with a leveling kit.

My stock 20's now look small on my truck since I leveled it.

Do you have a pic of it leveled, or can anyone post a pic of a 3rd gen with stock 20's leveled? Did you drop the rear or space the front springs? I've been thinking of dropping the rear as opposed to spacing the front.

I've got 33s on mine and it has not been leveled yet. No doubt when I do I'll be able to squeeze some 35s on it.
