I think a 375 might rub the control arms because they are so wide. I'm not sure though.

These wheels will bolt right up though? What does 5x5 1/2 mean?


Also what year ram wheels will fit on ours?

I thought he said they were equal to a 33". I used to run BFG 315s (almost a 35") and they fit fine with very little rubbing when the front wheel was turned all the way. A 375 would be like a 37". Dont think that would fit without about a 5" susp lift

375 is the width. 33" is the diameter. Since the aspect ratio on those 375's is only 50, they are about 33" tall. I still think they will be too wide.

The rims should be fine. The 5x5.5 is the bolt pattern, and that matches our trucks.

Yes they will rub as I am almost sure that the back spacing on a 10" inch wide rim is not going to be 4" inches, more like 5"+ inches which will put it even closer to the control arms.

Are you buying these off the internet? Can you test fit the rims and tires before you buy them?
