I have been searching without much luck. I really want aftermarket 18" wheels with stock tire size but it looks like some aftermarket 18" wheels don't fit due to the larger brakes on the 19s. Please post pics and/or stats about your aftermarket 18" wheels (include offset/backspacing) and any fit issues, and clarify if your suspension is stock, level, lifted... LETS SEE YOUR SETUP!

I went the cheap route. I put a set a wheel skinz over the stock 18" wheel on my Laramie. Couldn't be happier. forum1.jpg

Stock suspension. Fuel Vapors, 18x9 +1 offset. Put these on my 2019 Rebel stock duratracs. The +1 offset puts the tires exactly flush with the fender flares. I'm going to mount Blizzaks on the stock wheels for Winter DSCN1369.JPG DSCN1390.JPG DSCN1398.JPG DSCN1390.JPG .

Thanks for sharing!
Those turned out good! What are wheel skinz? Is it durable and available in black? Cost if you don’t mind me asking?

Those look great! I love Fuel wheels! I actually want to get some Fuel wheels for mine, and it’s actually the reason I’m asking for people to share. I am leaning towards their “Throttle” wheel, and I also want to move my stick tires to them. This gives me hope!

They seem as durable as the clad wheels my last 2 Rams had, except you can remove these if you want to. I'm impressed as to the quality, but I have only had them on for a few months. Best part is the price, around $100.

Been following this thread, hoping other will post up there setups that actually clear the calipers in an 18 inch aftermarket wheel. I like a little more sidewall, and won't lift the truck higher then level. I saw on another thread someone getting 35s on a 18 inch rebel wheel with stock suspension. It looks awesome. Not exactly the wheel I want, but hoping to see what others may be useing.

Well... mine isn't technically "aftermarket" either, but for now I'm rolling (literally) with stock 19.05 offset Laramie wheels, powder coated gunmetal, shod with 275/65/18 Cooper A/Ts, bumped out with 1.5" Bora spacers:
