Has anyone tried to put factory chev/ gmc wheels on a 5th gen?

I know this sounds like a crazy idea, but I understand the 2019 rams have the same bolt pattern as the current chevrolet 1500. I want to buy some 20" wheels for winter, and can pick up used gm 20" wheels for a decent price compared to new ram wheels....

6x139.7 is the same as GM trucks. Just watch your backspacing to clear the calipers and fender wells.

What backspacing is a no-no for the brakes, anything with a greater (+) offset over stock?
So if stock is +19, avoid +25 and on?

Correct. Backspacing should be stamped on the inside of the wheel by the bolt holes.
