What brand of tires does Ram use?
There isn't a single tire brand that Ram uses across all its vehicles. The OEM tire brand varies by model, trim, and market. In recent years, Ram has used several brands for original equipment, including Goodyear, Michelin, Pirelli, Firestone, BFGoodrich, and Continental.
Understanding which brand your Ram uses depends on the exact configuration of your vehicle. To replace or upgrade tires correctly, you should verify the specific OEM brand for your truck, as listed in official documentation or on the vehicle itself.
Common OEM Tire Brands Used by Ram
The following brands have appeared as original equipment on Ram pickups and heavy‑duty models across different model years and trims. Availability can depend on wheel size and regional markets.
- Goodyear
- Michelin
- Pirelli
- Firestone
- BFGoodrich
- Continental
The precise tire brand for your Ram is listed on the vehicle's original window sticker or door‑jamb label. When replacing tires, you can opt to match the original brand or choose an OEM‑equivalent that preserves the vehicle’s performance characteristics.
How to Find the Exact OEM Tire Brand for Your Ram
To determine the exact brand used on your specific Ram truck, follow these steps:
- Inspect the original window sticker (Monroney label) for tire brand information tied to the factory-installed tires.
- Open the driver's door jamb and look for the tire and loading information label, which confirms the recommended tire size and sometimes the intended tire type.
- Check the sidewalls of the current tires for the brand name, which may indicate the original equipment if the tires are still the originals.
- Refer to your owner's manual or the Ram dealership's build sheet/VIN decoder to confirm the OEM tire brand for your specific VIN.
- If you have a used Ram without the original tires, contact the dealer with your VIN to verify the OEM tire brand that would have been installed at factory.
When replacing tires, ensure you choose a tire that matches the original size, load rating, and speed rating. You can also discuss with a reputable tire shop to identify suitable OEM‑equivalent replacements that maintain the vehicle's handling and performance characteristics.
Summary
Ram does not rely on a single tire brand across its lineup. The OEM tire brand varies by model year, trim, and market, with Goodyear, Michelin, Pirelli, Firestone, BFGoodrich, and Continental among the brands that have appeared in Ram’s original equipment. To know the exact brand for your specific truck, check the original window sticker, door jamb label, owner’s manual, or contact a Ram dealer with your VIN. When replacing tires, aim to match the original specifications or seek OEM‑equivalent options from a trusted tire retailer.
