Default New rims

I am wanting to get Ballistic outlaw rims installed on my 2005 Dodge Dakota but they are +20 offset. Will they fit on my truck stock or will I have to do suspension upgrades?

They'll fit, no suspension upgrades are necessary. I'm running 20x9, with an offset of +19, and get the slightest rub on the front sway bar & frame at full turn only. You may have more rub with smaller diameter wheels, as the tire will bubble out further than a low profile tire.

FYI: Stock wheels are 16x8, with an offset of +25.

Make sure you get a tire size that fits. Read below to figure it out:

Ya, make sure you watch the offset, mine are 18x9 and I had to get fender flares to pass inspection....
