How to Read Wheel Offset & Measurements
Use these two references before ordering: the left diagram shows where each spec (PCD, center bore, offset, width and diameter) is measured on the wheel; the right diagram shows how positive, zero and negative offset shift the wheel face relative to the hub centerline.
ANKUSI Engineering Expert Advice
Payload and towing figures on a truck are engineered around a specific unsprung mass budget at each corner. Forging lets ANKUSI hit the factory strength rating for the Dodge Dakota Quad Cab at a lower rotational weight than an equivalent cast wheel, which is the more meaningful upgrade on a work-capable platform than diameter alone.
The Dodge Dakota Quad Cab runs a 5x139.7 bolt pattern, 77.8mm center bore, and a 16x7.0J, front and rear, wheel from the factory. Our Flush Fitment reference is 17x8.0J ET15, which tucks the tire under the fender lip on a stock-height Dodge Dakota Quad Cab. Our Maximum Aggressive reference is 18x9.0J ET10 — beyond that offset, expect rubbing against the inner fender liner under compression without further trimming.
Dodge Dakota Quad Cab OE Wheel Specs
The 2005 Dodge Dakota Quad Cab (Pickup) uses a 5x139.7 bolt pattern with a 77.8mm center bore. Factory wheels are 16x7.0J F/R.
Why the factory spec works for most owners:
- Keeps the factory ride quality and noise levels intact
- A common fitment for this class, so replacement tires are easy to source
- Preserves clearance around the OE brakes and suspension geometry
- Delivers predictable, easy-to-live-with handling for daily use
ANKUSI builds these wheels — we are the forging factory, not a reseller. For the Dodge Dakota Quad Cab (2005) we drill the 5x139.7 pattern and cut the centre bore to 77.8mm on our own CNC line, so the wheel hub-centres on the car with no spacer rings, in whatever diameter, width and offset you specify.

Offset & Backspacing Reference
Backspacing is calculated as wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance):
- OE: 16x7.0J ET25 → ~4.98″ backspacing
- Flush: 17x8.0J ET15 → ~5.09″ backspacing
- Max: 18x9.0J ET10 → ~5.39″ backspacing
Want to check a different width or offset before you order? Use our Offset & Backspacing Calculator to solve the numbers yourself, or looking for your exact Dodge spec, or want a wheel built to a custom offset for your Dodge Dakota Quad Cab? Contact ANKUSI with your bolt pattern and offset target and we will confirm the correct forged wheel spec for your build.
Frequently Asked Questions
What bolt pattern (PCD) does the Dodge Dakota Quad Cab use?
The 2005 Dodge Dakota Quad Cab uses a 5x139.7 bolt pattern.
How many lug bolts does the Dodge Dakota Quad Cab use?
The Dodge Dakota Quad Cab uses a 5-lug bolt pattern (5x139.7), so you need a 5-lug forged wheel to bolt straight on.
What is the center bore size on the Dodge Dakota Quad Cab?
The Dodge Dakota Quad Cab's center bore is 77.8mm. If an aftermarket wheel has a larger center bore than this, hub-centric rings are recommended so the wheel centers on the hub itself rather than relying on the lug bolts alone.
What size are the factory (stock) wheels on the Dodge Dakota Quad Cab?
Factory wheels on the Dodge Dakota Quad Cab are 16x7.0J F/R.
What is the biggest wheel size I can fit on my Dodge Dakota Quad Cab without rubbing?
The most aggressive fitment we recommend without fender work is 18x9.0J at ET10 offset. Going beyond this typically causes rubbing under compression unless you roll the fenders or add camber correction.
What does a flush wheel fitment look like on the Dodge Dakota Quad Cab?
For a flush look with minimal to no rubbing, we recommend 17x8.0J at ET15 offset as a starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Dodge Dakota Quad Cab.
Do I need wheel spacers for my Dodge Dakota Quad Cab?
No. ANKUSI forges each wheel to your exact target offset, including the flush or max specs above, so you get the correct fitment without stacking spacers. Spacers are typically only used to push out an existing OE-offset wheel without replacing it, which isn't necessary when you're ordering a custom-offset forged wheel.
How do I calculate wheel backspacing for my Dodge Dakota Quad Cab?
Backspacing (in inches) = wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance). For example, the flush spec above works out to roughly 5.09" of backspacing.
What's the difference between wheel offset and backspacing?
Offset is the distance in millimeters from the wheel's true centerline to its mounting face (positive offset pulls the wheel in, negative pushes it out). Backspacing is the distance in inches from the mounting face to the back edge of the wheel barrel. They describe the same fitment from two different reference points, which is why ANKUSI lists both above — some shops and tuning guides quote offset, others quote backspacing.
Can I run staggered wheels (different sizes front and rear) on my Dodge Dakota Quad Cab?
The Dodge Dakota Quad Cab runs the same wheel size front and rear from the factory, so staggered fitment is not required. ANKUSI can still forge a staggered set (wider rear) on request if you want a more aggressive stance.
