Default Can I fit 35" tires?

Hello, I am new here. My friend has a 2004 Ram 2500 HD with the Hemi and tow package. He wanted to know if he could fit 35x12.5" tires without having to make any suspension changes. Is that possible? Anyone have pics? Thanks

I have 33's and I think much more than that would be pushing my luck.

I think that the 2500 has a different suspension setup though, and he wants to put these on 16 inch rims. What do you think.

If he installed the 2" spacer lift he could just squeeze them in.

I think brderj is right, even with the 2500's beefier suspension, 33s are about as big as you can go stock... like Tempsho said, spacers work well and are cheaper than a lift... Ideally a 2 inch body lift would be best to fit 35's, and is cheaper than a suspension lift...
