Rim fitment, need info FAST!
Got a chance to buy some nice 16" chrome rims for my stock tires which will really make the truck look good!
They were bought for a 99 ram with a Dana 80 rear...will these same pattern rims fit my Dana 80 on my 02 HO CTD? goota know quick!
thanks guys

Try before you buy.
Every rim isn't the same inside diameter.
If your 2002 has rear discs, the ones from the 99 might not fit, as the calipers for the discs stick out further than the drums used to.

I just put some 2001.5 factory aluminim wheels on my 99, and found they are smaller diameter on the inside than my 99 wheels, including my aftermarket Mickey's. I had to turn the outside diameter of the drums down and do some custom grinding on my steering knuckle to make them work. This tells me the caliper setup on the front or rear of the newer trucks was a lower profile than a 99.
If they fit a 99 now, they will surely fit a 2002. Aftermarkets usually, since they are made to be a universal fit, are designed larger on the inside anyway.

my father had a 95 and i liked his chrome steelies with the bigger tires so when he went to trade it in, he was gonna trade rims and tires...his fit my truck beautifully...but mine would not clear his drums at all.
the deal on the rims look like its gonna fall thru as there was a friend of the seller who is in line first...and he is gonna get the rims i think
oh well
