It is feasible to install 37-inch diameter tires on a Dodge Ram 1500 by adding a suspension lift to the vehicle. In order to accommodate these larger tires, a minimum of a 3-inch lift is typically required, although a 4.5 to 5-inch lift would provide a better fit. A body lift alone is often insufficient for fitting 37-inch tires because it does not alter the suspension geometry. Longer shocks are necessary to prevent rubbing while turning with these tires. Consulting a nearby off-road performance shop can offer valuable insights on tire compatibility based on their expertise in building trucks.
By using a lift kit, you can install 37-inch tires on a Dodge Ram 1500 truck.
I currently have 35-inch tires on my vehicle without any modifications to the suspension. If you want to upgrade to 37-inch tires, they should fit on the rear axle, but you'll likely need at least a 2-inch lift on the front. You can achieve this by using spacers on top of your front struts. You shouldn't experience any rubbing while turning unless you switch to wider tires. You can get more specific information from tire and off-road truck shops.
What size lift kit should I get, is 3 inches sufficient?
