A set like mine? You mean the ones I already have two sets of? I have looked and they never seem to have the wheels I already have for sale. Although, if I find a new set that I like, there will be a set for sale on eBay or Craigslist soon after.

To aid in your search, also look at Ram wheels... sometimes punching in dakota doesnt bring up as much, but the ram has tons. then its finding the right offset and size.
The stock 16 inch dakota wheels I have are also a +38, I am guessing thats what dodge decided to use on these trucks.

Dont get frustrated, I cant tell you how many hours I got staring at this computer screen trying to find just the right one.. Wife thinks I am crazy but I told her it's a guy thing..
I did learn one tidbit of info tonight, the supplier of pretty much all Chrysler wheels is is a company out of California, the name is prime wheel.. I havent had time to look into what they sell yet but I will, I am going to go look thru this magazine and see if any thing strikes me.. Cya Slick

How does one counter a negative offset?
Can a difference between a +38 and a -12 be improved? Can I even mount these tires on my lugs?
Should I just suck it up and be happy with my chrome factory wheels? (Yuck)
Yes, I am trying for a certain look, which, if you can't tell, is getting rid of the chrome and blacking 99% of the truck out. Right now, the only chrome are the wheels and parts of the winch.
Still looking for black wheels, but I am really running up against the brick wall here.

Maybe you'll like one of these: Look where it says 'Direct Fit Package'.
These should fit on like a stock 20" Ram rim, which has an offset of 19.
If you look, you can find other rims that will fit. And your 17" tires will fit on a 9" wide rim.
Moto Metal 959B - 18x9, offset 18

That's the entire line.
