I know this question gets beat up pretty hard. Bare with me, been reviewing the wheel threads alot. !! First time I have threw myself out there for questions. But I have a 06 2500 Ram Mineral grey. Don't want the wheels sticking out past my mirrors. Just wana class it up a bit and fill some of the wheel well. 17" Im thinking. I think these will look great? Concerned they will stick out alot? HELP ME!! Before I talk myself out of it. Pull 5r with 18' Lund.

Nice looking wheels, but unless you describe the size (width) and offset you are considering, we really can't offer much (worthwhile) feedback.

One thing I found while looking for rims for my old 97 is that not all wheels are up to the load ratings required by our trucks. There should be a load stamped on the back of the rim. Make sure its at least what the stock rims are marked for. Can't help you with the offset. Welcome to TDR!

Sorry unclear

More or less I was asking the pros. what size. The size I think might be right are 17X8. 5 -6 offset. Part #AX108078582. Sorry for that. No lift kit, was thinking later to install a level kit.

Play around with this calculator... Wheel / tire size calculator / comparer - www.RIMSNTIRES. COM

A 17" wheel is preferrable in my opinion, although you need to check as some makes of 17" wheels will not clear the brake calipers on our trucks.

If you don't want the wheels to stick out very far, you need to look for backspacing in the range of 5. 5" - 6. 2".

A wheel width of 8. 5" - 9. 5" should work well.

Our bolt spacing is 8 x 6. 5" or 8 x 165. 1 mm.

Offset

Says a -6 will stick out 2. 8" that seems like alot. I think I could live with 1-1. 5?? That puts me at at +40 off set. Is there such? Really want that rim!

Like Eric said above, stay w/ a +5. 5"-6" of BS to keep them tucked in or so. There is not alot to choose from w/ aftermarket wheels w/ that BS, but that's what you want w/o sticking out and having a bulldog look.
