What size is the sport rims?

[Grayson]

I've tried to do a search, but what size wheels are on the sport model? And anybody know if they are compatible with the 3rd gen rams?

[quietpeen]

from the pictures, I'm guessing 20's because they have the same crappy Goodyear Wrangler HP's

[FreeLantz]

Sport and Laramie have standard 20-inch wheels. SLT comes with 17's standard, 20's are optional.

i looked very closely on a pic of the wheels last night and thy are 20's i was like dayum they look SMALL

so they're 20's

[Albert1500]

this is the laramies wheel, but i'm sure they are the same size as the sport

I think the sport models would look good on a leveled or lowered 3rd gen.

I like the 20's on the Sport model. I'm betting they still use the same 5x5.5 bolt pattern like previous models.

[4x4_guy]

my boss is pretty sure they are using 5x5.5 bolt pattern since they havent changed it since 94 and the wheels should work on everything from 94-09

I just read an article that Dodge_Tomahawk posted in another section (http://www.dodgetalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=191136), a guy is quoted as saying the stockers are 22s. Not sure which model, tho.

[srtdodge05]

My dads friend at chrysler said they offer 22in rims.

[FreeLantz]

They offered 22's on the SRT10, so it would not surprise me if they do again on the R/T model that goes on sale early in 2009............

22s= slower. Hope the RT comes with the 20s

You are so right!! My truck came with 20s and I traded them for some 17s. Alot less weight and the tires are alot less.

[BobtheBuilder]

Bigger wheel = Bigger $$$$ for tires

[wyat72]

Maybe that dealer offerst 22s. The largest wheels you can find on a stock Ram are 20's.

^yup, the sport chrome clads are 20x9 as are the laramie. The other silver painted option on slt model are 20x8 wheels.

I've seen the Chrome Clads on a Laramie and Sport locally. Both have 20" rims. Neither have an outer wheel lip, such as where you install the wheel weights. The chrome cladding is flush with the outer edge of the rim. Both use stick on weights on the inside of the rims.

Same goes for the Challenger R/Ts they had on the lot. Can't honestly say I have ever seen any rims come from the factory that way before on any brand. Might be their answer to the lip corrosion problem but I can't see where this will help. Mine are corroding where there are no weights, no clearcoat damage. These will still do the same on the outer edge, just no lip so if you do bang a curb, you're going to trash the plastic cover instead of just dinging the lip.

As soon as somebody finds out a definite offset and bolt pattern, post it here....

[quietpeen]

they are definitely 5x5.5 bolt pattern
