thanks you
Here's mine back when I had stock wheels with 1.75" spacers. I do have a 4" lift and 35" tires but gives you an idea of the wheel offset.

Also, if you are thinking of spacers make sure you get hub and wheel centric spacers that fit tightly with your hub and wheel hub bore. I did not do that and I went through a few spacers because the studs were shearing off from all the load that was going into them instead of the hub. I was lucky my wheel never came off while I was driving. I would recommended getting wheels with the correct backspacing and offset but if you don't have the money get the correct size hub and wheel centric spacers like these:

I have a 2010 RAM with factory 20'' rims I got a front only daystar leveling kit 2.5'' and I have 285/65/r20 KO2 tire that gives close to 35'' in diameter. I have order 4 hub-centric 1.5inch wheels spacers I was hoping to avoid adding fender flares but I think I will have no choices.


thanks for the pictures. nice truck BTW .

Thanks man, post up some before/after pics of yours once your done.

Do you have a restriction where you live with how much your tire can stick out?

Citori13, glad I came to read the original post. Just put on my summer tires from the stock 20". Had noticed this issue last year when I first installed but now got to thinking about it, the stock rims fit just right on the hub but the Granite Alloy that I have seem to be too big on the hub. What would you suggest to take up the space between the rim opening and the hub? Bought the wheel and tire package from Tire Rack and had shipped to me last year. Had no issue all summer but don't want to take any chances.
Thanks

A lot of aftermarket wheels are made to upfit on many different trucks that have the same bolt pattern so they will make the hub bore larger that way they will fit on a wider range of vehicles. I ran into the same issue on my new Moto metal wheels. They make hub rings that you can get to fit tightly over your wheel hub and into your wheel bore. This helps take the load off of your studs and also helps center the wheel so if you are having a lot of vibration with those wheels the rings could help with that as well. I bought mine through customoffsets.com but you can buy them on Amazon or eBay for like $20-30.

Here is a good video on them and some pics of mine.

Looks good man, I prefer black but that's just my preference as you can probably tell from mine I'm partial to black
