Default rim and tire question.

im thinking of putting the srt-10 rims 20by9 on my truck. will there be any issues as far as width or rubbing. is a 03 ram 1500/5.7/reg/short bed. i do plan on lowering it once i have the wheels. i think im going with djm's 2/4 lowering kit. thanks.

I thought the SRT-10 always had 22" wheels? 20x9 is generally OK on the truck as the offset is right (15-25mm generally)

With the lowering I'd probably use 275/55-20 for your tire size on a 20". That should be pretty safe.

Find out what the offset is on those wheels before you buy them. With replica wheels, some fit a lot like stock, but some are made for completely different applications, so make sure the seller can give you good fitment information.

Greetings, I assumed because they were both 5 lug compatible, I could put a set of 17inch wheels and tires from a 2003 model, on my 1999 1500 Ram, that had standard 16 steel wheels. It bucks like crazy now, and the grease cap is now external through the decorative cap cover. Can it be done, or is it a bad idea? I really like the 17
