I have a buddy that just bought a 2019 Ram 1500 and upgraded the wheels on day one.  I'm in the market for a second set of wheels for my truck. My question is will the 2019 Ram wheels with the following specs fit my GM product since the bolt pattern is now the same?  It looks like the center bore of the Ram is 0.3mm smaller that my GM truck?  Does anyone know if I the ram wheels with smaller bore would work on my truck? My buddy would give me a good deal if hey would work for me.  I am only really concerned about the center bore.  If I can't get the wheel on the hub, I'm outta luck.  Any input on bore sizes?

 

Here are the specs that I can find about Ram and GM stock specs:

 

RAM

275/55R20 9Jx20 ET19.1 6x139.7

 Center Bore: 77.8 mm

 

GM

275/55R20 9Jx20 ET27 6x139.7

Center Bore: 78.1 mm

 

Any help would be appreciated>

Check the rim's backspacing for compatibility.

Isn't offset basically the same thing?  It looks like there is only 8mm of difference.

 

Thanks for the reply

Plug the specs in here:

 

https://www.wheel-size.com/calc/?wheel1=265-65-18X8.5ET25&wheel2=315-50-20X10ET-23&fcl=50mm&wcl=30mm&scl=50mm

 

It will let you visualize what they'll ultimately look like.

I am not worried about clearance anywhere but the center bore.  Will the smaller bore of the Rams wheel at 77.8mm fit over the hub center of the GM. It is 0.3mm larger at 78.1.

I truly think you'd just have to try them.  I'm sure there's a tolerance on that bore +/- a certain amount and .3mm (.1 inch) isn't much in the grand scheme of things.

Thanks again.  I agree its not much...I'm hoping someone with more knowledge and experience would have a more concrete answer.

It’s actually only .012” difference, 3.062 to 3.074. I highly doubt 12 thousandths will make any difference! I’d do it. [emoji16]

good point. I guess I was over thinking the 0.3mm.  I might give them a try.

You're right, I did a quick conversion in google and didn't realize it dropped the decimal before the 3.  I'd definitely give that clearance a shot.

Can't you just try one and see if it fits instead of all the speculation ?

That would be ideal...but with no workshop and -25 temps, not something I was willing to attempt.

I'm getting sick of winter too. 

We are on pace to break the record snowfall for the month of February here just north of Minneapolis with two more snowfalls predicted in the next 6 days. At least we are above zero this week.

I have a 2019 2500 HD Dodge Ram. I bought a set of wheels that came off a 2016 Chevy 2500 HD. The wheels adapters are different and will not fit my dodge. They do fit the Chevy though.  My ? is does anyone know the bore center size for my dodge.  The bolt pattern is the same but the center bore isn't.  Goggle is saying it's a 126.15mm. Is that correct? Thanks!

    • I'm looking at carpal tunnel surgery on my left hand and lumbar fusion. 
    • While waiting for parts I have been working on installing the AC compressor, new accumulator, and orifice tube. Also changed out the high side ball valve (original). The orifice tube that was in there wasn't too bad. Slightly dirty, a little bit of junk, but not blocked. Glad I changed it out.   The accumulator, which should have been a 5 minute job, may have just burned $50. Put some PAG in it, wrote the date and mileage on the side, fresh o-rings and gooey'd up the threads and rings with Nylog. Got everything connected and snugged and was going to vacuum down the system, and....   My manifold gauge won't fit on the port. It's not an R12 service port. It LOOKS like an R134 service port but the diameter is a hair too large. There's a sticker on the accumulator that says it's designed to be used with R12 and R134a systems only. So it's not R1234yf. Even if I reduced the diameter slightly with a file, the shoulder on the port is too large so the quick-connect valve won't lock on. I'm stumped. It's going back, and 50/50 on if they'll give me a refund.   Also, I did a fuel pressure test.... Key on, the gauge spikes to about 60psi and quickly bleeds off, like 2psi per second. The fuel isn't going into the plenum, no smell, starts fine, so I'm guessing there's a bad check valve in the pump and the fuel is just draining back into the tank. oh, hell. But, it shouldn't be a problem, pump primes just fine and the truck starts right up. It just means I can't really ever use fuel pressure to verify a leak at the injector or intake.
    • Got this yesterday out of nowhere. Truck is a 25',6.6 gasser with 8k miles.  Only semi anomaly is that the truck had been sitting, uncranked for 6 days. Elec Stability Control showed immediately upon cranking, not while driving. No drivability issues, just the message. Battery didn't seem to be weak when cranking over.  I drove it, killed it, let it sit a few hrs with no avail.  Truck is 100% stock. No damage. 
    • This can be done.  It is not cheap and requires an instrument cluster swap with custom programming, new steering wheel with the controls on it, and a special jumper harness.   The cluster upgrade - 12.3” Digital Cluster Upgrade – 2022.5–2026 Silverado / Sierra (T1 Refresh Pickup) - WAMS   The wheel upgrade - Steering Wheel Upgrade Kit – 2022.5–2026 Silverado / Sierra (T1 Refresh Pickup) - WAMS   The column harness upgrade - 2019 - 2026 Silverado / Sierra: Steering Wheel LIN Bus Harness - Harness Dr. - DIY Done Right     The problem with doing all of this?  You pretty much can't have any programming done to your truck that involves the cluster ever again.  The dealer won't be able to program the cluster as GM's system will only pull data for the cluster the truck came with.  So it would be advised also to turn off over the air updates.   TLDR;  Should have bought an LT double cab?  You'd have a power seat, the wheel controls, the cluster, all things that you've been seeking in your various posts so far about your new WT regular cab.
