What size wheels and tires with leveling kti

06 mega cab with leveling kit installed. How big of a wheel and tire package can I go? Anyone know. I'm thinking 325 65 18 with a 10"rim with 5" offset. Anybody know if this will work okay?

Iam running the stock wheels with 325-75-17 or 35-12.5-17 toyo opencountry at's on a 06 ram3500. I bought a 2.5" leveling kit off e-bay and they fit perfect. not much clearance with a 5/16" thick hd mud-flap.

I drive the truck daily off road and it only slightly rubs on the track arms at full crank.

Stick to wheels no wider than 9" and with at least 5.5" backspacing (closer to 6" is even better). Wide wheels with 0 offset don't fit these trucks until you put on a lift on the taller side.

I have 18" moto metals with 35" nittos and only a leveling kit. They rubbed a little bit. Did a tiny bit of fender trimming on the insde where you cant see it and its good to go
