3500 DRW Alcoa wheels

[Kirwin]

I am looking at some take off 3500 DRW rims on EBay and the seller says that they won’t fit the 2013-2017 Ram. Did they change something in 2018 with respect to the DRW aluminum rims? Is it just that the center caps are different?

I would think the '18 would be the same. However, the '19+ is different. Scroll down to paragraph 5, it talks about the new bolt circle on the dually.

Do you know the part numbers?

This page has the wheel part numbers for '13 and '18. (part numbers appear to be the same)

I didn't think there were any changes from '13-'18.

I am fairly sure somewhere along the way they are no longer ALCOA wheels.

I looked up part numbers at Moparpartsonline and it shows same part number for 2011-2018. I’m guessing the EBay post is off by one year. Regardless they won’t fit my 2013. Mine have some scratches and one set of tire machine clamp teeth marks in the surface. I was considering replacing them 2 at a time but they’re over $600/each from Ram. So I guess 2019 and later have larger brakes?

2019 and newer DRW when to a wider bolt patten. 18 earlier used 8x6.5 (8x165.1mm). 19 and later went to 8x200mm

The link above shows Alcoa was used in 2018.

The 2019 data doesn’t show a manufacturer.

UH, let me guess they are CHICOM. I noticed the 19 I test drove at MayMadness did not have the ALCOA label on the wheel.
