Mike, thanks brother I appreciate the effort. I found a source where I can get one, but I'm checking the bone yards locally tomorrow before buying on line.

Thanks again.

It was less than 2 weeks, they pull the wheel off the shelf, refurbish it, and send it out (This is pretty much what all OE wheel retailers do). However they look top notch and brand new! Infact, better than new because they put a high polish on them and then a thick clear coat.

Yep, going on Red. I didn't get the tires I wanted, but the ones I got will do until I decide on keeping them or not.

I was given a set of 275/60-17 tires. I wanted 275/55-17. These will get me started and they are the same hieght as my current 20's. So i not sweating it at the moment.

Yeup, I have 275/60's as well, goodyear eagle RS/A. Great wear, horrible ride, look kinda balloony. Next set will be the grabber UHP 275/55's!

The Grabber UHP's 275/55-17 was my first choice. I tried to ordered a set but there was a supply problem. They are becoming hard to find unfortunately. You might find a backup tire.

I'll keep my eye out, although they had them in stock at my father's dealer 2 weeks ago.

Would you check again. A friend of mine has a independent tire shop and we looked at his supplier's database.

I got the rim, but no center cap. Tried a durango center cap and it does't fit, tried the 08 center cap and it doesn't fit. Anyone have a SS/T Center Cap they want to sell?

RamSport97
06-26-2011, 03:27 PM
Greg, its the same centercap found on all sport models as well. I used all the center cap from my stock sport wheels on my ss/t wheels.

good info, that opens up the options

Excellent info, Thanks. I was starting ti get a little worried as i asked HH and was told they didn't have any. Then I tried the centers from the 17's Durango's and the center's from my 20's and none fit. So I'll make a salvage yard run and see what I can find.

Thanks,

will the 96 -98 17x9 SST rims fit the 09 -11 Ram 1500?

RamSport97
06-26-2011, 11:17 PM
Yes, as long as they use a 5x5.5" bolt pattern which I believe they do.

Can anyone give me the hub opening size and a dimension from the back face to the back rim lips on the SST 17 x 9 wheels? TIA

I'd be happy to measure everything the next time I have a wheel off. But just for info sake, they look like they have the same dimensions as the 20's. Both being 9" wide. I just took 08 20's off and thesse look like they have the same fit within the fender.

Just got back from the bone yard and gave $9 for 5 center pieces. I got one with the Ram logo to make a set and I got four plain to use if I want to change a little. Online they are asking $10-$25 ea. With those kind of prices I might go into business.
