I have a 2011 Ram 1500 crew cab. I have the 17 inch 5 spoke wheels. Does anyone know the backspacing and offset on these. I am thinking about lifting, but some of the lifts Im looking at specify what the backspacing and off set needs to be for 17". Some even say cant use stock wheels.

You can use stock wheels however you will need to run a spacer or a hub extender. Sorry I don't know what backspacing and offset the 17's run.

You would be better off getting wheels with the right offset vs. running big spacers. If you take one off the wheels off the offset we ill be on the inside of the rim
