Another "Will they fit?" thread
I found a set of rims I am looking at buy but I wanted to check to see if you guys think they will fit.
Rims
18x10 Helo
5.89 BS offset unknown
Tires
305/65's or 325/60's
I want these to be tucked under the fenders as much as possible. If they stick out more than 1.5in. its to much. The tires I have yet to decide on but I want 33's and close to 12.5. I was thinking something like Mickey Thompson atz's.
So will it work

They will stick out of your fender by about 3 inches. They are very few options for us Dodge owners. I have only found about 15 sets that fit, which sounds like a lot, but not when there are 500 differents ones out there.

i don't think it'll be 3 inches....my 17x10's with 4.25" backspacing don't even stick out that much.
those wheels will be ok, but they will stick out a little being that they're 10"s wide...you'd be better off finding a 9" wheel if you want it closer to being under the fenders.

Thanks for the replies. Does anyone have pics of a similar setup? It does not have to be 18's just something with 10in. wide wheels and close to similar backspacing

Stock Rim is 8" wide with 6.5" of BS.....so they stick past the hub face 1.5".
Compare a 10 wheel with 5.89" BS...they stick past the hub face 4.11"...
So...4.11-1.5 = 2.61" over the stock geometry...
Simple math...and that is just the wheel. IF you used the 325's...they are 13-13.5 " wide at the widest verse a ~10" wide OEM tire. So you have another 1.5 to 1.75" is tire width additional on the outside (and inside).
So...it is more like 2.61" + 1.5" = 4.11".
