I didnt align mine and still no funny tire wear, its been about 10,000 miles. But then again my truck only has 21,000 on it now. If you think you need an alignment anyway go ahead and do it, im running 33 12.50 with no problem. Im thinking like he said, 35" is as big as you can go.

Just had my Lorenz leveling kit installed a few days ago. The truck was not realigned yet, but I imagine I will have it done soon anyway. With that being said it still tracks straight and the steering wheel is still centered. Like Rpainter and pos dodge said, a 35" will fit with the correct backspacing on your new wheels or stock wheels, try to stay as close to 6" as possible. I'll be running a 33" tire under my truck when I get some new wheels, hopefully soon.

If your going to get a kit go with Carli, they're freaken great I wish I could have started with them, but I got the kore kit. I had a few problems couldnt get it corrected till I contacted Jesse at Carli. I'm changing everything over to Carli, much better kit and thebest service I've recieved yet! Ask kore about there problem with bent sway bar links, or about the bushings in there arms. Ive had enough with kore's product and its only 5 months old. Compare the kits...
