Default durango wheels

My limited knowledge tells me that this should fit my 2003 Ram.... am I right?

Yes they should fit. Here is a pic of a similar wheel that I recently got a set of off ebay http://www.detroitwheelandtire.com/p...2006&model=634 The durango one's are 18's but these ram one's are 17's and look really similar.

I'm just looking around for what I would want. I like the Ram rims like this, but like that fact that these are 18" compared to 17".

5 on 5.5, 18" rims will fit. But if you are looking for some new rims I think you can find something nicer than those Durango stockers.

The size is up to you, but bigger wheels mean more expensive tires and usually more weight. That and the fact that it would make your speedo a lil off are why I opted for 17's. Take your time and look for something you like. Check the classifieds on this site and dodge talk for used wheels for cheap prices. Ebay and craigslist are also good places to look, good luck.

I don't like the look of most aftermarket wheels. I like the simplicity of the stockers. The majority of aftermarket wheels have a bunch of rivets and junk all over them.... that's cool if thats what you like.

I have 20" wheels and don't really like that my sidewalls are so short. I could use the 17" Ram wheels, but I saw a truck with 18" wheels and that extra 1 inch seemed to make a big difference. The 17" wheels for some reason looked a bit too small.

I really like the look of the stockers that are coated black.

I don't know what I'm going to get yet, but stockers are looking good to me right now.

well if you think that your sidewall is too little on your stock 20s, put a lift on that truck and get some big meaty tires like 35" or more
