I was looking at buying a truck for years and finally made it happen! In the years of searching I also found a TON of things I would love to do with the truck, but for now am looking to settle on a lift, rims, and tires. This is where I need help......

I purchased a 2014 Ram 1500 a week ago and have already figured out the rims and tires I want to fit her with, Moto Metal MO962 20x12 with 35/12.50/20 Nitto Terra Grappler G2 tires. I just need to figure out the lift I will need to clear these, what I am looking at initially was a set of Bilsten 5100's, but I can't find anyone who could tell me for sure.

As much help as you could provide will be appreciated, thank you in advance.

Any ideas?

I'm no lift expert but I'd have to guess that you might need at least a 4" lift for a setup like that...20x12 is really aggressive in my opinion, what's the offset?

I don't believe Bilstein's alone will allow that setup to fit.

The wheels have a -44 offset, they also make a 9in tire but i cant seem to find any pictures or information to let me know what it would look like.

This is the thread that I remember seeing a while ago...may help your decision, keep in mind he's got 33x12.50 on the tires, not 35.

for my 2010 i only needed a level kit to fit 35" tires, as long as the backspacing is right you wont need spacers to run that width

Yeah, but he want's to run a 12 inch wide wheel. With that wheel, I'd go with a 6 inch lift. 35's on 12 inch wide wheels may fit with only a 4 inch lift but I'm sure you'd have to do some trimming.
