Front 2WD Hub clearance for wheels

[Ryan98]

I have tried to dig around for weeks now trying to find an exact answer, but I cannot find a definite answer. I have a 1998 Ram 1500 2WD and as many of you probably know on here, that the hub on these trucks stick out rather far, I am trying to find new wheels (currently running American Racing wheels now as picture shows) but the ugly front hub and dust cap stick out like a sore thumb and when I get new wheels, with my OCD, I would like it to be flush and have the center caps fit... any recommendations? Wheel spacers? I'm not really going for an offroad look for this truck so I'd rather not get huge wheels spacers and have them stick out like crazy past my fender. I might put on 3rd gen 20's on here, but I just need some advice. Thanks - Ryan

Have you thought about updating your hubs? https://www.amazon.com/OCPTY-Bearin...--7---8-2---1&vehicleName=1998+Dodge+Ram+1500

I didn’t know that was possible… so it is possible to convert them?
