Is it okay and safe to put a 17 inch wheel on a 1998 dodge caravan?

What size tire ison it? If the size you want is much bigger then whatâ€™s on it then you might have some problems especially on the front when you go to turn the wheels.

There was a OEM GC that came stock with the 17 rims. Decent looking too. If the offset is close, you shouldn't have an issue. Your bigger problem will be in picking the right size of tires. I'm running 18" rims with 235/50-18s and have no rubbing issues. It's close, but they don't hit anywhere!

Have fun.

By any chance, do you know the bolt pattern of 98 Dodge Caravan? I've been searching the web but all i get is for 1986-96 model...

My '99 GC is 5 x 114.3mm or 5 x 4.5"

I believe that there were a couple of bolt patterns available so you'll need to watch oout but I believe that most were the same as mine as far and the late 90's goes.
