i decided to go ahead with some 1/4" spacers so i can fit 35x12.5R20. I'm ordering it from motorsport as i hear they are a really good site to purchase from.
so far the specs they have for me are

2012 Dodge_Truck Ram_1500
Your Bolt Pattern: 5x139.7mm
Your Hub Diameter: 77.8mm

this might be a stupid question but the next piece of info they need is the center bore of new wheels. how the hell do i figure out what that is?

I just ordered mine last night I had the same issue are you running the stock 20s? If so its 77.8 it says it at the top you'll only have to change it if your getting a different rim

You are keeping your stock wheels correct? The center bore will be the same as the hub diameter at 77.8 mm, because the stock wheels are hub centric and fit on perfectly. Let them know you are using stock wheels. The reason they wanted that info is if you are using aftermarket wheels with a larger center bore in them they would have to reduce the opening from the back of the spacer to the front to make them hub centric.

They make really high quality wheel spacers.... I just ordered a 2" set from them a few weeks ago. Be patient though as it took 4-5 wks for my spacers to arrive.

yes, they are the stock 20x8 apparently bc they are the black rims. even though when i measured them from bead to bead it was 9 but idk. so 77.8 it is...awesome..thanks everyone

one more question.. should i go with the hub centric or the Hub Centric to Vehicle and Wheel Centric to Wheel?
