stock17" rims on older models?
lookin' good but.............
The truck pics on here are slick,but i am wonderin' why ya'll would want 17in. rims,the tire selection sucks.You have alot more options if ya stick with the 16's.Hit me up if ya want some though because mine come off on thursday.

I scored mine for $700(off ebay, brand new take offs), and I needed new tires for my old 16s anyway(would have ran me a lil over $600) and I didnt like how it looked(bad offset on the old wheels, stuck out like a vatomobile)
Only problem I ran into was getting the correct lug nuts(different type to fit the newer wheels, larger tapppered area where it holds onto the wheel, and its wider to have the center cap clamp onto them, since thats how the center cap mounts) But the lug nuts were $40(again off ebay, theres a guy that sells JUST lugnuts off newer cars) and they sent me 34...

These lil guys...
I was thinking of going to the 17" dually wheels & skins, but using the old style centers rather than the new smooth centers, anybody tried that yet???? also where is the best place to look for the 17" dually wheels???? Dusty

Went to napa bought some stockers and those didnt work either with the nut not being big enough to hold onto the center cap all the way(would have fallen off the second you drove it down the road)
I got my 3rd Gen. wheels from the local Dodge dealer w/new tires for $550. Got $350 out of my 16" wheels on E-bay.
I like them without the center cover on:
