Default 1997 Ram Question

I was just wondering if anyone had ever changed from 16's to 15's by any chance? I know some of the older half tons had 15's but since 2nd/gen not sure? I was told the rims wouldn't go over the drum or rotor, but not sure if correct? (1997 Ram 4x4 w/8ft. bed)This is my first Dodge so any info would be great! Thank's!

Do you have a half ton? Or 3/4?

i have the same truck you do and when i got mine the P.O had thrown on a set of eagle alloys 15 inch wrapped in 33x12.5 15's lt's and the only thing they did was rubb at full lock so it depenes on what brand you get and the specs of them.
