I just spent got a great deal on badass tires for my ram, then bought sick rims to match, 15 inches, unfortunately for my life they dont fit because the calipers are too big. If i get 2 inch wheel spacers I think they could fit without touching the calipers, any thoughts? Has anyone done this? I know i've seen 15 inch rims on full size trucks before.
You might have seen 15" rims before but not on our Rams. The smallest you can do is 17s. Hope you didnt spend too much. But you know even Honda Accords come with rims bigger than 15s now-a-days.....LOL
Put 'em on Craigs List cause they ain't fittin... Maybe get 16s on if you shaved the hell out of the calipers, but 15s??? Couldn't even put 15s on my 2nd Gen Ram...
yoko geolander at2's. good luck finding them online, you cant find pics really but they are the knobbiest at's ive seen. and the rock crawler rims, black. spend about a grand, which to a college student is a fortune
No you can't people have tried. Put them on craigslist and sell them. And next time do some research before you spend 1k dollars without knowing if they will fit.

$1k or 15" rubber w/rims is not what I would call a great deal. I purchased tires/wheels for my brother-in-laws Wrangler last year and paid $750 shipped for 31.5" M/T rubber on 15" rims from JC Whitney. The 33's were $100 more.

STOP spending money. Your throwing it away at this point. Unless you stack 3 sets of 2" spacers on your truck, those wheels aint fitting.Period.
We don't want you to waste anymore money man. If you can return those wheels. If not, post them up for sale, but you"ll likely lose some money on them. Not too many guys looking for 15" tires on a 5x5.5" lug pattern.
