Here they are. I'm very happy with how they look. The 22's look right at home and fill the wells nicely. (The R/T's lowered stance helps.) And the 285's look much more aggressive from the rear, lessening the minivan look a bit back there.

Yeah, on an ALL BLACK R/T, they look nice. I worry on a Black chrome covered Citadel, they might be too black, hence why I wanted some part of the rim to be polished whether the rim or some part of spoke. That's what I'm hoping to see pics of some day, a black rim with some polished parts.

How do the 285's do at full lock? Like making a U turn do they rub at all??

this is probably a dumb question but sorry im confused. i have a set of after market 22s that i took off my 05 ram 5x139. i was gonna have them dipped in gunmetal for my 11 silver durango heat cuz i assumed it would fit being dodge. since the durango is 5x127 does that mean it will not fit? i dont understand this offset crap. Thanks

-5x 127 is not the offset, that is the spacing for the lug studs.
-The offset is how far or how close the center of the wheel is from dead center. The higher the offset the closer the wheel is under the wheel well and lower the number the farther out the wheel sits.
-And to answer your original question your 5 x 139 ram wheels would not even come close to fitting your durango.

Check this website to help you understand the offset:
