I have a 2020 RAM 2500 4x4. Still running stock 275/75/18s. I want to replace with taller/wider tires. Probably also rims . . . considering 20 " rims. Fully expect to need a levelling kit. Any suggestions on height of leveling kit and type?

About 2500 lbs in the bed. Sorry...had to. I dislike levels. They screw with actually using the truck.
Most seem to do a 2" level. Lots of threads here about them.

Are you saying you think you will need a leveling kit if you go to larger tires? If so, I think you can go to a considerably larger tire without leveling.
35x12.50 tires are very popular and fit with no kit needed. I'm going with LT295/75R18s - about 34.5" x 11.8", and others have confirmed no issues with stock suspension.
Just one other note; why are you thinking of 20" rims? I'm actually going the other way and downsizing the 20" rims on my Limited to an 18" aftermarket wheel - the extra sidewall is much better for offroad and will give an improved ride. CJC, Thuren and others would not recommend a 20", but 18" or even 17" with more rubber.

Thanks much! I am starting to lean to staying with 18s.
LOL.
