Experience with '13 Rubi Rims? Biggest tires mounted on them?
I like my stock rim pattern and want to go to a 35", 36 or even 37 for obvious ground clearance reasons. I have a 3" lift and still need to cut the pinch seams I know for diameter but width is more my question with a stock 17/7.5 rim size. I will sacrifice tire width for height and was wondering what sizes and brands you guys may be running on stock rims? Thx for any input...
Oh and opinions on this lift I had installed by dealer? I told them I wanted the tallest lift without voiding warranty and this Mopar kit is what went in. It rides great and had some quality name parts so I didnt think it could be a bad lift kit. I hear long arm , mid arm and short arm...Im thinking this is short? Anyone know by looking at a pic?

So long arms dont just bolt in and need welding and relocation. This was about all they had to say about the lift...
" Co-developed with FOX and TeraFlex, this Stage 3 Lift utilizes an external reservoir version of the FOX 2.0 Performance Series shock for even greater heat dissipation. The shocks, in combination with the Mopar / TeraFlex SpeedBump System (used on the front axle), provide exceptional performance at speed. Additionally, this system includes all four rear axle-to-frame link arms, and the front / lower link arms for ideal driveline geometry and front end alignment.
On a scale of 1-10 in lift kits, how woud you rate this kit? Ive seen a lot cheaper lifts and hoping I didnt throw away a bunch of cash...lol

Definitely a short arm kit. Nothing wrong with that. The Full Traction Long Arm does not require welding, but its not just as simple as bolting on. Depending on height, you have a ton of other things to deal with. You made a good choice, looks like a clean kit and factory supported 
Do not go past 35. If you have the 37 itch, prepare to spend $$$ x $$$ to do it right.
What you have will work great with 35s from looking at the kit.
