Thanks for the info. Post #: 1

That's my opinion. If you are doing off roading.. I'd say no... get the 17's... because the 20's are too awesome to scratch. :) ~Amanda (in reply to Ram Off Road) Post #: 4

For a 4x4 I would go with large tires on 17's. IMHO . BlueHemi37939.8317476852 (in reply to Ram Off Road) Post #: 7

I've seen a 6" lift on a 02 ram with 18s it looked tight. (in reply to Ram Off Road) Post #: 8

Ive heard alot of complaints about the 20's being "not smooth" and stuff... 20's may look better, but ride feel....go with 17's (in reply to Ram Off Road) Post #: 11

What would you guys get? - 11/26/2003 3:27:33 PM    Ryan J   Posts: 5 Joined: 11/26/2003 From: United States Status: offline     I plan on getting the 17”s myself. I like the sport look of the 20” wheels, but I know my driving habits & style. I’ve always taken functional over form every time. And I would rather rock a stouter revere with 17” wheels and 33” M/T’s People are already talking about how “Played” the Ram oem 20”s are getting anyway. I think it’s because they look like an aftermarket wheel, but you see it everyday on every Ram that goes by. Personally If weren’t gonna get the 4x4 Ram and ended up getting a 2wd Q/C I would order a set of oem  SRT-10 22”s get the oem hood w/ scoop and the ’03 sport appearance kit with running boards and the front lip, then be done with it.    -Ryan            Ryan J37951.6446180556 (in reply to Ram Off Road) Post #: 12

Ryan go with the 17s or 18s at the max, more and better tire selection than 20s! (in reply to Ram Off Road) Post #: 14
