20" Wheels to swap for 17"
« on: March 28, 2009, 09:18:02 pm »
I was wondering if anyone with 17" wheels would like to swap for 20" wheels off a 2007 1500?  Mine are 5 spoke painted alum. 9J is what the build sheet say's.  Toyo tires size 275/60/20.  Good tires with even light wear.  Just want the same in return in 17" size.  If somebody's interested I'll get pics around.

why are you looking to go down to 17"?

i have a buddy that has a 1500 and i keep telling him he needs the 20" rims, he has the 17's now i think. i dont what kind of rims they are but they are stock, ill ask him and maybe get some pictures.

I love the look, but they ride a bit stiff.  Not lumber wagon stiff, but more like corvette sporty stiff, if that makes sense.  Also I haul a camper and I'm used to increasing my air pressure to help stabilize my overall ride, but max air pressure is 35 psi and thats what roll with all the time. 
i have a buddy that has a 1500 and i keep telling him he needs the 20" rims, he has the 17's now i think. i dont think they are the nicer stock rims, they might be the cheaper ones but ill ask him.

i will show them to my buddy and ill let ya know what he thinks. he sounds like he MIGHT be interested in working this out but hes not totally sure... maybe these pictures will help him determine.

or coarse this a mutual thing so if he likes the rims, ill have my buddy get some pictures up and we can go from there.

im assuming since you (Buford) are posting the pictures, that these rims are located in Michigan  :scratch:

well he said he likes them but keeps failing to deliver the pictures of HIS rims to me.

not sure exactly where his motivation is, maybe its a no-go  :scratch:

i will be going away for the weekend, if he ever decides to get me decent pictures i will post them early next week.

if then then i dunno what to say...
