You asked so we're answering! This video covers everything you need to know about fitting and trimming for 38's on a 2014+ Ram truck. we show exactly where you need to trim and how you need to do it to clear 38" tires on a 2014, 2016, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, or 2020 Ram 2500 or 3500 truck.
While this set up looks great, keep in mind that it is a street only tire set up, and will not clear lock to lock turning at suspension bottom out.

I think the color really makes it stand out!
My favorite truck on RUclips. Absolutely gorgeous.
We appreciate it!
Thank you Cole for all your help and for responding to our questions
Remember when 35s were big ? Pepperidge farm remembers .
😂😂
😂👍
Same trimming for 35s with no lift..but that depends on wheel offset.. stock rims n 35s rub the sway bar and 4.5" offset rims rub where this video shows.
That green with the bronze wheels is my dream truck...
Still rubbed a bit with my 22x14 and 33s on my 1500 last year, hoping to trim the pinch weld up some more this year so I’m good to go! Thanks for the video!
Have 33s on mine stock lift no issue, and I wheel it all the time. Throwing 8 inch lift sas swap with 40s soon
@@michaelrasmussen426 33s on non wide wheels isnt an issue. You can even fit 35s on stock wheels. But with 14 inch wide wheels, and -81 offset, it’s not possible to clear them!
Do you have to regear these trucks with the g56 , 2017 to run 37s with the 3.42 gears? My truck has 1200 foot pounds of trq. Just don’t want to hurt the drive train.
I want to put 35”or 37” with my 3:42 gears. Currently my tires are 33.5”. When I do the math on paper it’s not much difference. But I look at gearing charts they say I should be using at least a 4:10 ?
Nice build
Does it rub the front plastic mine is clearing in back but rubs when I reverse coming out the driveway. Do you trim it at all
It does, but you can always trim that plastic too.
Hey CJC, If i have a stock 2500 4x4 2022 6.7 Longhorn Limited (without Air Suspension) - Coils only- with the upgraded 20s, probably 20x9 - I guess.. Will a Carli front to rear option lift, maybe 2.5 or even 3.25 get me enough to run 37x12.5x20s... Or even 285x65xR20... I am pooling $$ now to get it all and move over - without a wheel change but, if it would end up being a problem, I'd like to know before I waste $ on the wrong direction.👍👀💯
To fit 37s on a Ram truck we recommend a +12 to +27 offset wheel that is no wider than 9.5.” A +12 wheel will yield a slight poke from the fender, while a +27 wheel is just about flush with the side of the truck.
Running stock wheels with 37s is a bit tricky, since the factory wheels are +40 offset which is about 20-28mm too far in. As a result, you hit the radius arms and sway bars with the tires when turning lock to lock. You can either cut the studs and run a bolt on spacer that makes up that gap with the stock wheels, or go with an aftermarket wheel in the right specs. Since we aren't too fond of cutting wheel studs, we'd suggest the aftermarket wheel route. There's no way to lift your way out of the wrong wheel specs!
Will this method also work on the Thuren 2” system? I have a 2019 Ram 2500 with Thuren 2” and method wheels (18x9 +18 offset)
Thanks
What size/model/color wheels are those?
What size lift is in the truck ?
This truck is on a 3.25" Carli system
Mine is trimmed and is fine with backing up and normal driving but when turning into a driveway or a turn with a bump I rub really bad I don’t know how to stop it
That's because the suspension is compressing, moving the wheel further up. See where it's rubbing and trim more! It may also be wheel spec related. Unless you have the perfect wheel specs, 38s will not fit.
@@CJCOffRoad thanks I have 37s stock wheels and 2 inch spacers
Hey Cole, do you guys have a video on wheel sizes? Why 17s would be better or worse than 20s, in reference to towing, ride quality, etc? I'm almost ready to place an order with y'all on a commuter, but I want to order rims and tires too. Don't know which size wheels.
The simple answer is that more sidewall equals better ride!
Hello. What kind of lift do you have on this set up? I have a 2015 2500 with 6" lift. Im wondering if i can fit 38s.
It all depends on wheel specs. With a 6” height system you need wheels around 5.5 to 5” of backspace to fit 38s and still be able to wheel the truck. This truck is on a 3” system.
@@CJCOffRoad thank you
Are you burning more than rubber? 4:20 lanth video
On the thumbnail. But here in the actual player, it's only 4:19 🤔
Do you guys still have this truck? Could you do a towing video? Thanks!
Yes and yes!
When tires are mounted would you say the 38 ridge grapplers are the same size as the 37 toyo MTs?
No they’re larger than the 37” MT.
what's the ground clearance with 38s and the Carli kit? Also how much do you expect the dominator kit to cost ballpark?
Ground clearance is about the same as this kit with 37s (38’s only add .5” at most) but it’s plenty good to get these trucks pretty much anywhere. As for cost, we don’t have that info from Carli yet sadly.
Hi Cole, great channel, keep it coming. May I ask, what offset rim do I need to be able to fit a 38x15.5R20 tyre on a 2500 Ram (2010) which has a 6" lift kit and currently running 37x12.5R30's (currently Dick Cepek rims, not certain of the offset but not enough for the 15.5's) but currently not enough space on the inside for the width of the 38x15.5 the rear as well as I have a Firestone air suspension installed as well so the bellows is quite close to the tyre, about 3/4 inch gap. Thanks, Rory, South Africa 👍
To fit 37s or 38s on a Ram you need a 8.5-9” wide wheel with +18 to +25 offset. There will be plenty of trimming involved for 38s though!
@@CJCOffRoad I don't believe you can run a 8.5 - 9 " wheel with a 15.5 wide tire, at the very least it is not recommended by the manufacturer. In fact I don't believe a 13.5 wide tire is recommended for use with an 8.5 or 9 inch rim either.
Do you need to upgrade the suspension to run 38’s on a stock 2022 RAM 3500?
Yes you do!
Just purchased a 2021 Ram 2500 Crew ordered a 2 1/2" front level kit with 1" rear lift and new shocks, I plan on 37/12.5/17 KM3's on 17x8 rim with +12 offset. Will trim be required in your experience?
Here’s a video that covers exactly that: ruclips.net/video/ZrbWcMZKmxk/видео.html
Do you have any install videos on a 2019-20 power wagon ? Or any video with your lift on a power wagon?
We're about to get one in the shop to film a video, but the process and parts are all exactly the same.
CJC Off Road how will it affect the sway bar disconnect?
On a 19 Power Wagon with a neg offset wheel, the AEV fender flares, and a Thuren 1.5" level could 38+ tires fit without relocating the front axle?
Absolutely not. If you want to use the truck off road. To fit 37s or 38s on a Ram you need a 8.5-9” wide wheel with +18 to +25 offset. Negative offset is a no go.
Leave that city boy stickng out shit in the dumpster
finaaaally
@cjc off road how does this setup run on light offroad driving? I.E the opening clip on the dirt road with the few bumps. looking at the 3.25 back country and want to run 38x13.50 20 on the black rhino Arsenals 20x12 -44(unless that wheel doesn't work then I'll go with a 20x9.5 -18)
The commuter system does great for mild, low speed off road actually! As for your wheel specs, you’ll want to reconsider if the plan is to run a 38. You can ONLY do a positive offset wheel that is no wider than 9.5” if you hope to cram 38s under one of these trucks. You want a wheel with +6 to +25 offset. Anything negative will leave you with extreme rub when turning or flexing. Keep in mind the truck in this video already rubs on 38s when turning and flexing even with the optimal wheel spec and lots of trimming.
@@CJCOffRoad thanks for the quick reply. as much as Id likethat deep lip look. Id rather have functionality. so the commuter setup would be good for light offroad applications ? I dont do any crazy off roading just simple driving out to go hunting maybe a slightly aggressive trail but that typically traveled at low speeds.
Would you have to trim with a 4" lift to fit 38s on 18 in wheels?
Absolutely. Even with the perfect wheel specs. You can’t lift your way out of rub unless you go massive. A 4” lift becomes a 0” lift the second you hit a bump and the suspension compresses. One way a lot of the cheap lifts cheat that is having almost no suspension travel.
what rims are them? thanks

Will 38s fit if I get the fox 2.0 leveling kit?
They will rub regardless of the suspension setup sadly.
So will you be going to 37s after this set? Also where are you guys getting tires toyo and NItto are all on back order!
Just drive it - it will wear in......
You're waving the Dave Smith banner like they are THEE go to. Not my experience. Pull the plates.
They treated us great. We’ll pull the plates when we get our permanent ones.
