Default Wheel Question?

I've found some 2008 Dodge Nitro OEM Rims online for a good deal, will they fit a 2008 Dodge Ram 1500 Reg Cab Base Model?

For 2008 RAM 1500 you need 17x8 rims with 5x5.5" bolt pattern.

Won't work. Nitros have a 5x100mm bolt pattern and rams use a 5x139.5mm (5x5.5") bolt pattern.

What size rims do you have now? If they are larger than 17's (which is what I am assuming because you want to swap), why not place an ad for them for sale or swap for some 17's that will fit?
