No lift or suspension mods and the 35's are doing AWESOME. They rub the radius arms just slightly while turning at full lock but no other rubbing anywhere else.

I have heard that with aftermarket wheels with just the right offset you can get away with 35's and no rubbing at all.[/quote]


It looks great! Make sure to check where it's rubbing on the radius arms. When I put 35" Toyo MT's on, mine was hitting the radius arm bolts and was grooving into the sidewall of the tire on both sides. That bolt head was digging in pretty good.

I ended up going to 18's as the Fuel Offroad 17's were so close the caliper, I could not get the wheel weights to clear. There has to be other aftermarket wheels that will work though. My 18's are a +1, 5" Back space. I pulled the fender liners back a little and they do not hit on the street. Flexed up with the wheels straight they barely clear, however with them turned they did grab the liner by the pinch seam.

You are right, they rub at the bolts so I VERY careful to keep them from rubbing as much as possible.

I did want a Laramie, only because I did not want all the stickers and I wanted leather, but none of the dealers around me had one and I couldn't wait the time they were saying it would take to get one... I'm not trying to make it look like anything other than what it is, a Power Wagon... :cheers:

I like the subtle chrome letters on the tailgate only over the huge "look at me!" graphics and stickers the the new ones have. Even the smaller stickers on mine are almost too much for me. My buddy had a black '08 wagon in high school that had the chrome lettering on the tailgate and I loved it. Yours looks really similar Waggy.
