Re: 20/22" steelies?
Are the 20" wheels off the Dodges spare tires, or are they a standard wheel. What are the odds of junkyarding this stuff? So I guess what I'm trying to ask is, would a guy be looking for 4 trucks with the spare or 1 truck with all 4 wheels?

Re: 20/22" steelies?
Dodge Rams with factory installed 20's will have a steel 20" spare under the bed. If the truck had dealer installed 20's the truck might have a 17" spare underneath because they forgot to add the 20" spare. EBAY has a set of 4 right now with a 185.00 buy it now price (kind of high) + shipping. I got all 4 of mine for less than 50.00 each shipped by just asking around.

Oh well, mine are only 17's, I guess I can't play with the big boys.

Easier said than done, and would not be cheap.

With a 1.75" spacer up front, that puts you at 3.5" backspacing. That definitely will not work on a bagged truck, and will likely stick out past the fenders. Ditto for the back with 3.25 backspacing. I don't mean to pee in your Cheerios- I have been researching a set for my truck and just wondered if you made these work. Can you verify the backspacing on the wheels? Have you gotten around to ordering center caps? If so, do you know the center bore diameter? Thanks for your help and keep us updated on your progress, - Chris

Re: 20/22" steelies?
That's what I was thinking. The machine work would likely be more than the rotors...

Well I ended up using a stepside bed that I had laying around and the wheels will not fit.... Close but no go.... If you redrilled the axles of course work with no problems... I had not got around to putting any tin on the front so I am not sure of the front...

Re: 20/22" steelies?
Well, the machine work costs significantly more than the rotors- hell- the powder-coat cost as much as the wheels. Tires coming soon...

Re: 20/22" steelies?
I like your ideas and follow through guys. I am personally into big chrome rims, but i appreciate the subtle look, shop trucks, factory stockers, etc. It's the different ideas that lead to more ideas that make this site such a wonderful place.

Sorry man, I am probably not going to get them mounted, as the truck they were meant for is getting prepared for some major suspension modifications that will not allow these wheels to work. When I'm done with it, it won't even accept the stock bolt pattern- much less the Dodge wheels. ![]()
