Centerlines are typically good rims. You should go on their website and do a search for your truck. It should tell you what rims will work.

I'm a long time satisfied customer of Centerline. They are spun-forged and considerably lighter than most cast wheels. They are made in the USA, if that's an issue for you, and customer service is second to none.

I once had need of a replacement cap that was discontinued. I called Summit Racing and they gave me a number at Centerline and soon a guy was found who was willing to go scrounge through some old parts and see if he could find any of the long discontinued caps. He did, they were still in the packages, and he called me back. He then sent them to Summit (since they did not at the time sell direct), and Summit forwarded to me at almost no cost.

I've still got a set on one of my toys and highly recommend them. To get comparable wheels it would usually take 2-3 times the bucks elsewhere.

Hope my experience helps you decide. I kind of like one of the new 20" HF-series (as I recall) for the Ram, but I'm not sure it has enough backspacing, even though it is listed for an '05.

All the best.

I can't decide between the following 2 rims...

I like the rapid, because it looks more like a sportscar rim... But I like the Escape as well because it looks a little bigger and meaner, the way a truck tire should look...

The one on the bottom is real nice. What is the weight of the rim? I wonder how much you'll lose by changing out the stock rims which are boat anchors.

bottom ones are slick, not a fan of the dimples around the edge of the top one.
