2012 ram 2500 wheels on a 2002 ram 2500??
Can anyone tell me if this will work? The 02's are 16" and the 12's are 17". Question is will the backspace and bolt pattern work? I need tires and found a set of wheels and new tires for $1200. Thanks Mark

They should fit without any issues. I have 17s from an 06 on my 02 that came with 16s. no problems.

They will work, your main concern is clearing the brake calipers, which the larger diameter 17's will...

I have a set of 06 17" mags on my 01 and I think they look a lot better than the stock mags for my year.

Plus, I think they are a little easier to clean!
