Dodge Ram D150 Wheel Fitment

[@danielbridgewater3444]

Same problem I have right now. Thanks for sharing. Helps a bunch.

[@CarlsonsCustoms]

Good luck!

I have had lug centric spacers on my 1985 D-250 with 2012 Dodge wheels for 6 years. No issues.

[@MrACOSTA559]

I got the same rims for my ‘87 d100. I seen your video how have the spacers been holding up? I can’t find hub centric spacers for mine so I’m going with the spacers you got just going 1 1/2

[@CarlsonsCustoms]

I can’t really answer how they have been holding up because I have yet to drive the truck. Long story. But I have used lug centric spacers on other cars without an issue. If I were to do it over again I would go with 1 1/2” on the front and 2” on the rear. Good luck and let me know how it turns out!

[@CurtisDTV813]

If you just pop the studs out and mill a 1/6 off of the hub with a brake lathe, you can fit most any wheels you want on this truck. I will be posting videos soon.

[@CarlsonsCustoms]

I can't wait to see it done!

I just bought a 84 ' Dodge Ram D150. Went to Discount tires and their system says it takes 5x5 bolt pattern. The computer system is wrong. The 84' model bolt pattern is 5x114.3 I hope that helps.

[@CarlsonsCustoms]

Hey John, that's interesting...and confusing LOL. For some reason I thought '86 was when Dodge went from the 5x4.5" (5x114.3) to the 5x5.5" (5x139.7). Which would make your remark correct. However, I just looked at a couple of websites and they show it happened in '81 which would match with the body style update. I think Tom Damon might have summed it up best when he said Dodge did unusual things back in the day. Anybody else know for sure???

[@johnnie2388]

@@CarlsonsCustoms I couldn't agree with you more. Very vague on the information. I did put American Racing Torque Thrust 15x10. All I do know is a 84' for sure is 5x114.3 God bless America!🇺🇸

[@enjoythesho1992]

@@CarlsonsCustoms my 1983 has the 5x4.5 pattern it's hard to find wheels that have the correct center bore

[@bucketlistracing484]

Your giving wrong information! 1984 was the last year for the 5 on 4.5 pattern 1985 went to the bigger pattern! Not 1981.

[@brysonlove9867]

Good video I just finished 5.7l swapping and wanting to change wheels do u have the info on what adapters you used I hate buying the wrong parts and your way clearly works lol

[@CarlsonsCustoms]

Hello Bryson. I so wish you had a video of your 5.7 swap. That is what I'm wanting to do to mine! As far as the spacers I used I will include a link, but just incase that doesn't work I got them on Amazon. They are called "Rock Trix 4pc 2" thick 5x5.5 to 5x5.5 bolt pattern with 1/2" studs. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ATVFAOQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Good luck!!

I ran into a similar problem with hub diameter trying to mount 16" Dodge wheels onto my mid 80s F150. Aluminum wheels are easy to machine. I've done it at home with a straight cut router bit. Steel wheels aren't so easy. A machine shop can do it with a boring bit, but it wouldn't be cheap. Spacers are the way to go, but another option could be too turn down the hub diameter. The rear axle isn't always a problem. But that doesn't take care of back spacing problems.

[@CarlsonsCustoms]

Right on Kevin. Thanks for the input, I appreciate the other options for more folks like us to have when they run into this. 🙃

[@tomdamon7208]

FYI, Dodge did some unusual things with their wheel/tire combo's back in the day . different series trucks (d150, w150 , d250 , w250 ) all had different wheel/tires . Event in the same series there could be differences depending on weight capacity . Example : towing or camper or plow packages . I , however , am not a fan of wheel adapters . In your case it seem doable . Good luck !

[@CarlsonsCustoms]

Thanks Tom for the info. I know I was confused when I had run certain wheels on certain trucks without an issue, or had seen similar trucks running the same wheel. "Its always something" should be my life's moto.

[@waynestinyworld]

If anyone gives you crap about lug-centric wheels, please make them aware that approximately 100 million factory cars for the last 100 years are made lug-centric......lol. And those front wheels look fine as is. Remember....it's just a Dodge!!! :)

[@CarlsonsCustoms]

Thanks Wayne. You know, the more I think about it, I think you are right about the lug-centric. Hmm Appreciate your opinion on the front wheel spacing. Yeah, "its just a Dodge"....I'm just thankful that its not a Chevy!! : P

[@allraiders420]

What a good video.

[@CarlsonsCustoms]

Thanks Jeremey. Hope it helped

[@kurtwilson1578]

Thanks for the good information, I’m looking at purchasing a 89 D150 for a Mopar pickup project later this week. I think it’s going to fit nicely with my 71 Duster summer cruiser. Mopar or Nocar!

[@CarlsonsCustoms]

Hey Kurt. Glad I could help. Nice choice of rides.

[@leegoldeneagle9003]

Now that was cool and yes we do what we need to do it's fine that way you're not going to be racing with it 👍👍👍👍👍😊

[@CarlsonsCustoms]

Thanks Lee, and good point

[@chuckeast7399]

It’s only happening to you cause all your information is all wrong….

[@overzealousgamer4471]

Care to elaborate?

[@billyeaton7929]

Thank you this was a big help I have been searching high and low and driving myself crazy trying to figure out wheels for my 85 d150 I am building 👍💪🙏

[@CarlsonsCustoms]

That's awesome Billy. Good luck with your build! Whatcha building??!! I hope you post some vids or make a series!
