1981 Dodge W350 Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1981 Dodge W350 uses an 8x165.1 bolt pattern with a 117.0 millimeter hub-centric center bore. The factory wheel measures 16.5x5.5 with an 18 offset. You can upgrade to wider options including 16.5x6.5, 16.5x6.75, 16.5x7, or drop down to 16x6.5—all compatible with your truck's straightforward square setup.
Only wheels with an 8x165.1 bolt pattern will fit this W350; no other pattern works on your truck. If you choose a wheel with a center bore larger than 117.0 millimeters, use hub-centric rings to ensure a proper fit. Aggressive offsets or widths beyond what we've listed risk contact with fenders and suspension components, so stick with our verified sizes.
Every wheel we offer for your W350 is confirmed to bolt on directly. Free shipping applies to the lower 48 states. Carolina Forged, Vision, WELD Off-Road, American Truxx, Black Rhino, Fuel 1PC, American Racing, and Tuff all have fitments in stock and ready to ship.
