What is the biggest tire I can get on a ram 1500 94-01 body style with no lift and  without any issues? Also, what's the cheapest and best way to get a 2 inch lift on there. I've heard 3/4 ton springs in front and an add a leaf in back?

hey mopar....
i have 33" BFG all terrains on my 01 ram 1500 quad cab!!!! 2nd one i've owned( first one was a 98-1500) i have 16x8 american racing wheels on them (1 inch wider than stock, is the biggest w/out a lift)  i just ran outside to check my tires..... they are 285-75-16.
that combo is the biggest/widest you can go without a lift. if that's the type of tire your talking about (big & beefy) and not big 20's w/ low profile tires?!?!?!?  i don't have any pics of my truck small enough to post?!?!?! if you want, shoot me an email(cdog149@optonline.net) & i'll send ya a couple back thru email.

Life isn't Father Knows Best anymore, it's a kick in the face on a saturday night with a steel toed grip kodiak work boot and a trip to the hospital all bloodied and bashed.....for reconstructive surgery. But, what doesn't kill us, makes us stronger, right?

A couple more pics of John's truck for ya. I also had 33's on my Ramcharger, as a matter of fact I had 33's on all 3 of my ramchargers.  This could lift your truck all you need cause they look killler under there.

I was thinking of going with 33-12.50s anyway. Still thinking of a small lift though, about 2 inches. Anyone know about the add a leaf/ 3/4 ton spring idea?
