I was given a set of factory Ram 20" chrome rims this week. I want to put them on my 05 Dakota. I know they are the same lug pattern, but will they just bolt right up or will the back spacing be a problem or is there anything else I need to do to make them work?

Also, does anyone know what size tire I can fit with a 20" rim?I have airbags on the bag and a TM level kit on the front.

 

ram wheel fit with out a problem (I have them). Run the 275 45 20 and you will be fine. I hight reccommend the goodyear fortera SL. I had other 20" tires and these are the best for traction thus far (I just have 4x2).

 

Lets see a pic!

I've considered this option before as well...... [sm=badbadbad.gif]

 

how much is a set of thse rims btw?

 

I bought a set of 17"rims from a 2007 Ram and was told at Discount Tires here in Texas that it would be best to put 265/65/17's on. I wanted 275/70/17. Doing some research the 265 setup is taller and wider so that is probably what I will go with. Don't want any rubbing on turning or anything. Right? I am putting these on a 2006 Dak ST Quad Cab by the way.

yea they will fit, dont get good year. personally never liked them. try out the cooper h/t plus. 275/45/20.it isa great tire

 

Thanks for the size. Has anyone ever tried the Cooper Zeon LTZ tire? The specs look good and the prices aren't too bad either.

 

I hate goodyear's lower end stuff but I have had some very good tires from them before (the Wrangler AT/S tires I had on my 95 Chevy come to mind). Although I somehow doubt you're looking for AT's for 20" rims

 

Actually I need AT's. I take my truck off road about once a month pulling a trailer. I only go a few miles off road with the truck, but it's a mix of: dirt, sand, sugar sand, and muddy trails. I have goodyear wranglers on the truck now and would like to go a little more aggressive in a 20" tire. That's why the Cooper's caught my eye.
