found a good deal on some forged alcoa's that are made for Dodge...
They are 16x6 w/ 8 on 6.5 pattern...says they are for front.

#1: are all backspacing on these types of dually rims the same?

#2: there isn't a difference between front and rear applications right?

#3: any possibility of brake interference as they are listed as a Dodge rim?


You are bidding on one (1) NEW ALCOA Magnum FRONT FORGED ALLOY Dualie Wheel 16x6, 8x6.5 bolt pattern. Alcoa part number 363291.


This wheel has never been mounted and is in its original box. Applications include Dual Wheel 8 Bolt Hubs 2 or 4WD including:

DODGE 1994-2002

I dont know abou #1 and #3, but number 2 is there is a difference when you are dealing with the aluminum dually rims. Thats one of the reasons I will probably stick with my steelies and simulators on my dually, so I can rotate the tires properly without mounting & dismounting. I can almost guarantee that only the face is polished and while it would technically bolt onto the rear.....you wouldnt want to.
 
I am not sure about aftermarket but I know keiths chevy wheels would not fit a dodge dually I was driving

Was it a 94-up Dodge? Chevy wheels will not fit because of the center hole being to small to clear the weird little lip on the dodge WMS ( same thing with H2's on a dodge the center hole needs to be enlarged slightly). but a dodge wheel should fit the chevy with no issues
 
Didn't Dodge use a 70HD on the rear of their dually's too?
 
and the Chevy rims are larger hub hole? Wow.

No dodge is bigger thats why GM rims need to be machined to fit a dodge



Kinda like the fords the stock chevy steel wheels wouldn't wont fit some ford rear ends

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]*Finishes are indicated by changing the last numerical digit of the part number to one of the following. For brushed both sides, the number is "1." For buffed inside only, the number is "2." For buffed both sides, the number is "3."[/FONT]​



So offset and backspacing are negligible, and would the +.17 hub difference be an issue?​

also drw rims NEED TO HUB CENTER as thay use flat flange lug nuts or plates and acorn nuts. so best make sure the rim hub hole fits correctly.

and some rims for drw are only polished front or back side. if you try and swap them front to rear outer then it will look like crap. i know ford did this on the 99-up stupid duty trucks.

and steel inner is the comon thing for light duty and even heavy duty stuff. just make sure you have the correct length lug studs to get 2-3 full threads out the end of the lug nuts.

and if me i would just go a nice set of simulators. cheeper and tire guys cant scratch the hell out of the polished face of the aluminum rims when thay try and clamp them from the inside like normal. ( thats why i always did all rims in aluminum from out side clamp to save from scratches :whistle: )

I ran into an issue putting factory 96 wheels on an 04. Center hub was too small. You may need.lug centric lugnuts as all.aftermarket wheels prob use a different center hole




I was wondering about that too....seems like the aftermarket wheels are fitted for all 3 brands, and look like a conical seat to them. not so with the Alcoa's though.
 
That's good to know bout the alcoas.

I just pained mine so when I rotate I just have to wash the wheels. It's a pain keeping the all clean.

And later in life ill repaint mine.

But I'm saving up for some steel 19.5s. I think the 16s and 17s just look too small. Even with no lift.
 
so this difference of .17 is gonna make a difference on the hub/wheel being centered?

It seems to me that all the dually wheels are hub centric except for the dodges which are neither lug centric of hub centric they use a mix of concave and convex nuts to center it. Not sure of years or anything on that.

But I do remember a buddy telling me that just recently (he worked at a tire store for years) when I was looking at rims

So yes that .17 will make a difference
