1981 Dodge Ramcharger Base Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1981 Dodge Ramcharger bolts up with a 5x114.3 pattern and ships with a 15x6 wheel at 3mm offset. You can step up to 15x7 or 15x8, move to 16-inch diameters in 7.5 or 8-inch widths, or go as large as 19x8. Since this truck runs a square setup, any compatible size works front and rear without stagger concerns.
The 5x114.3 bolt pattern is the only fitment that works on your Ramcharger, so verify any wheel you consider matches precisely. A 71.8mm hub-centric bore accommodates most modern wheels, though using hub-centric rings ensures a perfect fit if a wheel's bore runs larger. Aggressive offsets or very wide wheels risk rubbing the fender and suspension, so stick within the proven compatible sizes listed.
Every wheel we stock for your Ramcharger is verified to bolt on and ships free throughout the lower 48 states. Aodhan, Heritage Wheel, Work Wheels, and BBS are all in stock and ready to ship for your classic truck.
