I feel like I am the only person who likes Oem 17" wheels. I used Oem wheels with my jeeps and now with my ram. Everyone has 20s and rock stars Etc. I hate the added cost of tires for 20" wheels and I like standing out from all the other Rams with Oem 20s. The only Oem 20s I really like are the Sport 20" wheels.

I have a black 2016 CC Hemi Express with the Oem 17" aluminum 5 spoke wheels and I really like them. I think they will look even better with some bigger white lettered tires and a level kit/5100s.

Does anyone have any pics of theirs with these wheels?

I have 20's on my truck, but I like the stock wheels as well. I need to put some larger tires on thoughf772a08ba82c65e81ad022d9afd913fb.jpg

Those look nice, I do like some Oem 20s but they seem to be on every ram i see.

I will agree the right tire can make a wheel look 100x better.

I plan on white lettered BFG AT KO2 285/70/17 on mine. I love white lettered tires too.

I'd like 17" steel better than the aluminum. I "add" a set of steels to most of my vehicles.

Same reasons for me ...

i currently have stock 17's on my hd and i really hate them.the center caps look butt fugly and why they went with a 17 on an hd is a head scratcher. i'm looking for a set of fuel hostage in a 20 inch so i can carry my camper with some better road manners.33's on a 17 gets really unstable even with 65 lbs.of pressure.

I love my factory 20's. I do like the look of the newer sport 20's.

Don't get me wrong, Ram has some of the nicest looking Oem 20" wheels but everyone has them! I like to be a little different.

I plan on the Bilsteins set at 2.1" and 285/70/17 BFG AT KO2

I prefer my 20s but I have seen some 17s that look great with a bigger A/T mounted on them.

I USED TO HATE ANYTHING LARGER THAN 18"s but strangely the 22's are growing on me. Strange!
