The lift kit on this particular Ram 1500 requires a minimum of 18-inch wheels. The 37-by-12.5-inch tire size seemed about the maximum the suspension would support, and maybe a little more in terms of width. The setup allowed the tires to extend about an inch outboard of the wheel wells. That’s not a glaring problem, and it can easily be remedied by choosing a narrower tire or by adding fender flares. We noticed that the front fenders had been slightly trimmed for extra turning clearance, at the rear of the wheel well, but we had to look closely to see it. Beyond that, we didn’t see a lot of evidence that the tire had contacted the wheel well during use, which was surprising considering how heavily the suspension had been cycled during our dune running.

Right out of the article.... they will fit, but you will need to trim. And it all depends on if you use the same offset rims, if you get yours out a little farther, you will hit more.

what made you pick the 4 inch lift from mopar. isnt it one of the most expensive lifts on the market and its only 4 inches.

They way it sounds is that you didnt know that it was warrantied.
