Own a 2020 2500 tradesman. Working towards chrome delete and switched to black\red badging.

That said, I'm hooked on these rims. I do not understand offsets\bolt patters. My question is will these fit my truck? Also plan on a 3" front 1" rear level kit from readylift.
Tire size isn't that big of concern to me

Rim - D71220008247 http://www.fueloffroad.com/wheel/13574/fuel-1-piece-wheels-rage-d712/?finish=3160&part=D71220008247

Thanks everyone
 
That particular wheel will fit your truck, but will stick out a bit past your fenders due to the negative -18 offset. Depending on what tires you run you may experience rubbing and will likely need to trim some plastic (and/or metal) within your front fender well.

This. Scroll through the pics on this page until you see the Ram. The back wheel looks like it is pretty far out. I think most guys go with +18 to +57, but don’t quote me on that :)

Those are some sharp wheels! I have seen on a Chevy and looked good.
That -18 though:eek: I ran a +18 and stone chips galore. Those wheels will poke out darn near an additional 1-1/2”. Also depending on your state regs, you may be ticketed.
 
I found a 2500 with a -18 offset -

Love the look but damn, you're right. Look at all the **** on the door.
 
The Power Wagon wheels are 17x8 with about +45 offset. Here they are with 35x12.5 and I feel like it is perfect. They are pretty much flush with the flairs and do not rub anywhere with the PW suspension lift (at least they have not for me yet). I am not a fan of offsetting tires past the fenders for the look of it. I first look to functionality, then appearance. Fender wells keep junk from flinging all over the place and when you have an inch or more of tire outside of them, well...

Thanks everyone. If I'm understanding wheel specs correctly, the -18 offset is the only option I have in this particular rim model, is that correct?
 
If you were to read through all of the gallery entries for those who've gone with wheels the same spec as those originally posted, it appears most have slight rub at full lock when running 35x12.5 and a leveling kit.


So if you are truly stuck on those wheels you need to either be ok with a little rub, go with a smaller tire, or be prepared for a little trimming.
