1979 Dodge Ramcharger Base Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1979 Dodge Ramcharger Base bolts up using a 5x114.3 pattern. The factory setup runs 15x6 at a 3mm offset. You can step up through multiple sizes: 15x7 and 15x8, move to 16-inch with 16x7.5 or 16x8, jump to 17x8, or go modern with 18-inch in 18x8, 18x8.5, or 18x9. A 19x8 option also fits. Since this isn't a staggered application, square setups work perfectly across all sizes.
Only wheels with a 5x114.3 bolt pattern will fit your Ramcharger; no exceptions on this fitment. The hub bore measures 71.8mm—use hub-centric rings if your chosen wheel has a larger center bore to ensure a proper, vibration-free fit. Wider wheels and more aggressive offsets can risk rubbing against fender lips and suspension components, so verify your specific size and offset choice before ordering.
Every wheel we list here bolts straight on and ships free throughout the lower 48 states. We stock Aodhan, Heritage Wheel, Work Wheels, Enkei, Vors, Black Rhino, BBS, and Gram Lights—all verified to fit your truck.
