Default Tire Size - what fits?

I love my new 09 2wd crew cab Ram. I want to know what the maximum tire size is i can get on the truck without any rubbing? I added the Day Star 1.5" front end leveling kit to it last week which defiantly increased the front end wheel clearance. I know I cant get a 35" tire on the truck and I don't want it to look like I stuffed a pillow into a water glass, but I would like to see if I can go to a 34.0" - 34.5" tire. The truck came with 33" tires so i'm thinking with the added 1.5 inches of front wheel clearance I could go up 1 - 1.5 inches in diameter. Looking at the Nitto Terra Grappler 295/60/20.

Is this something that I'm just going to have to try, or has anyone put a larger tire on there truck?

Thanks

There isnt that many of us here but i think the 35 will fit....that is a lot of space there now for you, it is going to be a trial fit thing, and it will be different for people with aftermarket wheels on our 2wd, what rims do you have, chrome clad/silver allum/ or other?

Came with the 20" painted allum wheels. Thinking of replacing them with a 20x9 XD Series wheel.
