What to Know Before You Buy
TRX Bolt Pattern & Offset
The Ram TRX uses a 6x139.7 (6x5.5) bolt pattern with 106.1mm center bore. All wheels in this guide are designed for this fitment. Offset affects stance and tire clearance — common TRX offsets range from -20mm to +25mm depending on width and desired look.
Set vs. Single Pricing
Method and Weld sell wheels individually. Rays Offroad, Volk Racing, Gram Lights, Advan, and SSR sell as sets of 4. We’ve normalized all prices to per-wheel so you can compare fairly. A $2,400 set = $600 per wheel.
Construction Types
Cast wheels are the most affordable. Flow-formed (rotary forged) rims are lighter and stronger. Forged wheels offer the best strength-to-weight and are premium. For TRX use (off-road, heavy truck), flow-formed and forged are ideal for durability.
Sizing & Tire Compatibility
TRX factory wheels are 18x9. Aftermarket options in this guide range from 17x8.5 to 22x12. Match your wheel size to your tire choice — 18” is the sweet spot for most TRX owners balancing looks and tire availability.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to change my lug nuts when upgrading wheels?
Often yes. Aftermarket wheels may use different seat types (conical, ball, flat) or require different lug lengths. Check the product listing for included hardware. Many TRX wheels use M14x1.5 lug nuts; verify compatibility with your new wheels.
What offset works best for the TRX?
The factory TRX uses 18x9 with approximately +19mm offset. For a flush or slightly aggressive stance, offsets from +0mm to +25mm are common. Negative offsets (e.g., -12mm to -20mm) push the wheel out for a wider look. Ensure clearance for brakes and suspension.
Set of 4 vs. buying singles — what’s the difference?
Method and Weld sell per wheel, so you buy exactly four. Rays Offroad, Volk Racing, Gram Lights, Advan, and SSR sell as sets of 4. Set pricing can offer a slight per-wheel discount. We’ve normalized all prices to per-wheel in this guide for fair comparison.
Cast vs. flow-formed vs. forged — which is best for the TRX?
For a heavy, high-performance truck like the TRX, flow-formed or forged wheels are recommended. They’re lighter and stronger than cast, which matters for unsprung weight and off-road durability. Cast wheels can work for street use but are heavier and less ideal for hard use.
Will aftermarket wheels affect my factory warranty?
Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, a dealer cannot void your entire warranty for aftermarket parts. However, claims related to suspension, steering, or braking that could be attributed to wheel fitment may be scrutinized. Use correct specs and professional installation to minimize risk.
