I'm sure you guys get this question often, but do you know if I will be able to fit 15 inch wheels on my 2001 ram 1500 4x4 with 2 inch wheel spacers? I've heard that they won't because the dual piston calipers get in the way, but would they fit with the wheel spacers? They are pro comp series 1069 15x10 inch polished wheels.

Also, I'm having trouble finding polished deep dish 16 inch wheels, in case the 15 inch ones don't fit. Do you guys have any ideas where I could find some?

Thanks, Billy

 

I'm not sure you'd want to run those wheels with 2" spacers even if you could. The 10" wide 15 will already poke a couple inches out of the wheel well, add on top of that the 2" wheel spacer and I don't think your wheel bearings or ball joints will much appreciate it.


Do you know what the offset of those wheels is?


I'm thinking they *might* fit depending on the backspacing/offset but you're really gonna wanna do a test fit if you can..

 

Wheel bearings are both good and I replaced ball joints both sides were replaced last fall. I also am running fender flares so the it won't look like it sticks out too much. I've been using the wheel spacers for a couple years now they haven't done much damage. The ball joints looked factory when I changed them lol.

The offset is -46 and the backs pacing is 3.625. I actually ordered 1 wheel yesterday for that exact reason.

 

I don't think 15's will clear the brake calipers on an 01.

 

That's what I've been told, I've also been told some will clear.

I just was looking online and found a 2000 ram with the same exact wheels on it. From what I hear it is the 2000-2001 rams that have the dual piston calipers

 

Correct.

On the truck that had them, does it say what the owner had to do to make 'em fit? Spacers? Grinding? Other?

 

It says there are no spacers. Here's the link:

Interesting.

The tires WILL stick out further than stock. Less backspacing, wider wheels..... Yeah. Pics when ya get 'em on.

 

You got it👌🏻👌🏻 gonna be running 33x12.50 bfg all terrains

 

What gears ya got in it?
