After a lot of research and owning Toyota, Chevy, and Ford I just bought my first Ram last night, but I couldnt bring it home since they are fixing some minor issues from the previous owner....man went crazy with the touch up paint when he should have just left it!

At any rate Im looking into some light modifications tires/wheels, better sound system, etc. My question is what do you guys recommend as a swap for wheels? Im interested in 17". Would wheels off a 2500 work or look right? It doesnt even look like a 4 wheel drive and its driving me nuts. Let me know what you think.

Ram 2500 wheels are 8 lugs, whereas the 1500 uses 5 lug wheels. So to answer you're question, no 2500 wheels will not fit.

Yeah I saw that right after I posted. I noticed that towing capacity goes up with 17" wheels as well.
