Looking for Used 20 Inch Rims for My Dodge Ram 1500

I’ve been thinking about upgrading the wheels on my Dodge Ram 1500 and am particularly interested in finding a good set of used 20-inch rims. My main goal is to enhance the overall look of my truck while possibly improving performance.

Here are a few things I’m keeping in mind:

  • Style: I’m looking for rims that not only fit well but also match the rugged look of the Ram. Any recommendations on brands or styles?
  • Condition: Given that these are used rims, what should I specifically check for? Are there common issues I should be aware of?
  • Fitment: Do I need to worry about offset or bolt pattern? What specs should I look for to ensure they fit?

If anyone has experiences or suggestions on where to find good used rims for sale, or tips on what to look out for, I’d greatly appreciate your input! Let’s talk wheels!

I’m looking for 20 inch rims for my Dodge Ram 1500 as well! Make sure to check the bolt pattern; it should be 5x139.7. Also, keep in mind the offset needs to be around +18 to +25 mm for a good fit.

Great advice! Also, check the brake clearance, especially if you have bigger brakes. Not all rims fit every setup.

I’ve been searching for the same thing! The wheel offset is super important. You don’t want the tires rubbing against the fender, trust me.

Exactly! It’s also wise to consider if you’re going for all-season or off-road tires, as it might affect your rim choice.

I’ve got a Ram 1500 with 20s and it looks awesome! Just double-check the rim width too, usually around 8.5 to 9.5 inches for a solid fit.

Great point! If you go wider, it can affect handling. Stick to what works for your driving style.

Don’t forget to check if the rims you consider are rated for your load capacity. It’s crucial for a truck like the Ram 1500.

True! Proper load rating is key. And make sure you’re using lug nuts that fit the new rims.

I had a tough time when I first bought rims. Learning about offsets and clearances was a headache! But once you get it, it’s totally worth it.

Reflecting on my own experience, going to a rim specialist helped me a lot. They provided insights I didn’t find online. Seek advice if you’re unsure!

Switching to 20 inch rims can definitely enhance the appearance of your Dodge Ram 1500, but it might affect ride quality. Bigger rims can lead to a stiffer ride due to less sidewall on the tires. Just something to keep in mind!

I’ve noticed that with larger rims, my truck does feel a bit different on rough terrain. Still, it looks great and handles well on the highway!

Does anyone have data on how fuel efficiency is affected by changing to 20 inch rims? I’m curious if the trade-off in handling is worth it in terms of gas mileage.

I didn’t notice a huge difference in fuel efficiency after making the switch. A small hit, but for the looks and handling, I think it was worth it!

I recently upgraded to 20 inch rims and I found my towing capacity slightly affected. My truck feels a bit heavier, but it’s not a dealbreaker for me. Just be prepared for slight modifications.

That’s interesting! I was worried about towing performance. Any specific issues you’ve had while towing after the switch?

I love the look of my 20 inch rims! I feel like it gives my Dodge Ram a more aggressive stance, but I do have to be careful on bumpy roads. Anyone else feeling like a king of the road yet?
