Default WILL THESE WHEELS FIT? PIC

Hello, can you tell me if the bolt pattern from a 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 is the same as a 2005? Need to know if these will fit my 05 ram 1500 . I guess these came off a 2001 with the off road package and special 17 inch wheel.

Also a link to see them, they look like 5x5.5 but says will fit a 2000-01, I have the same pattern so I wanted to know if any of you have these on your newer rams.

Thank you

Excuse me if i'm wrong... But the older rams ran 16 inch wheels right?... the new ones are running 17s.... I know that may not seems like a lot... But i'm thinkin the rotors changed as well... So there for ... the smaller rims may not fit... But like i said... i may be wrong... If you own the rims... Put it on... or try... and check the clearance... watch the brakes... caliper... hoses... sterring arms.... and whatever else is there...

I don't see what is so special about them... Up here(NH)... I see that most of the rams had those rims.. But if they are 17's then they will fit... But the other thing i forgot to mention... was check the backspacing on both rims... That may be a drawback... Hopefully i'm not stompin on your dreams.. But i'd hate to her you screwed up your truck...

LOL whats special about them is their 17's, All the older rams had 16's, I like the look of that wheel way more then the stock 05 clad wheel.

Thank you for your input

those are the 17" off road rims they actually are on a few of the 02's and 03's also. Pretty rare on the 3rd gen's though. They will fit fine.
