Did you read the Wheel/tire sticky? https://dodgeforum.com/forum/3rd-gen...dodge-ram.html

20x10" w/-24mm offset is a 4.5" backspacing. You'll stick out 1" more than guys with a 9" wide wheel with the same 4.5" backspacing. They will be 2.75" further out from the fender than stock 20's would be taking into consideration the tires as well. I think you'll rub on the front bumper inner liner at full lock.
btw, you'd get pulled over in NY with those blow me stickers.... and most apartment communities wouldnt allow your ***** on the hitch either. kinda off topic but hard not to notice in your sig. Also, I think you need to get rid of that dealer sticker under the DODGE. Looks like crap.

More reasons not to live in NY state, or CA for that matter. Heaven forbid your truck offend some soccer mom that has nothing better to do. Have to agree on removing that thing under the DODGE badge though.

sorry for my ignorance i skimmed the thread looking for offset and missed it thanks for the explanation thou and "full lock" is that having the wheel cranked all the way in? and i will take that dealership badge off lol, i live in a rather rural community and truck nuts are nothin but normal

the blow me edition i copied off of some guy i met who travels alot in his huge dodge welding for people lol his truck does more justice to that badging.

Or is it a cummins? If so then my bad. But don't get the rockstars I see them on trucks every day there's nothing unique about them anymore. Now people get made fun of for putting them on

Truck nutz! Really, are you kidding me. Those things serve absolutely no purpose other than something else to kick besides the tires, and IMHO look rediculous. It's not all bad though, I like the machined face rockstars and the pocket flares.
