Off Roading 101 Ram

Truck enthusiasts have several popular models to choose from here in the U.S. One of them is the Ram 1500, one of the leading picks year after year. Top of the line models tout 702hp V8s, high-grade suspensions , and optimized exhaust systems to offer cutting-edge performance. Here at Off Road Warehouse, we’re always excited to work on Ram trucks and give them the upgrades they need to succeed on the trail. Let’s explore the ways you can enhance your Ram 1500, starting with suspension.

Suspension

Increased lift is always top of mind for our customers, and for good reason. It offers better ground clearance for off-road driving, supports fitment for larger wheels and tires, and optimizes ride performance. It’s the foundation to start from on any vehicle build, and the Ram 1500 is no exception.

One of our most popular kits for the Ram 1500 comes from ICON Vehicle Dynamics . This Stage 5 kit offers dual-rate rear coil springs, adjustable front coilovers, and FK bearings for extended longevity and minimal deflection. Additionally, it features Delta Joint-equipped tubular upper control arms for improved geometry. All around, it’s an excellent kit to give your Ram 1500 the off-road edge it needs.

With this kit installed, your Ram 1500 has the ability to take on harsher trails and keep its composure. It also offers an extra 1.5 inches of lift to fit in some bigger wheels and tires, so let’s get into that.

Wheels & Tires

Wheels and tires are about more than style; it’s about grip and off-road performance. When your Ram 1500 has the right footwear, you can feel it on the trail. Let’s showcase all-terrain and mud-terrain tires appropriate for the vehicle, as well as popular wheels to give it an extra boost.

Toyo Tires is our top choice when recommending tires to customers. The manufacturer’s storied history includes off-road racing legends like BJ Baldwin and Bryce Menzies, and its products are used around the world in the harshest environments. Two of their most popular tires are the M/T mud terrain and A/T III all-terrain.

The A/T III is designed with a balance in mind, offering respectable on-road performance and solid off-road driveability. The M/T , meanwhile, works best for vehicles that spend more time on the trail than on the asphalt. Its deeper grooves and widely spaced tread blocks help evacuate rocks and mud better than the A/T III, at the cost of overall longevity.

For wheels, we recommend checking out our top-shelf brands, including Method Race Wheels and ICON Alloys . Both offer unique styles and anti-debeading technology in their wheels, optimizing them for off-road use in vehicles like the Ram 1500.
