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 Ram Outdoorsman 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 Ram Outdoorsman runs a 5x139.7 bolt pattern, 77.8mm center bore, and a 17x8.0J, front and rear, wheel from the factory. Our Flush Fitment reference is 17x9.0J ET0, which tucks the tire under the fender lip on a stock-height Ram Outdoorsman. Our Maximum Aggressive reference is 18x9.0J ET-12 — beyond that offset, expect rubbing against the inner fender liner under compression without further trimming.
Ram Outdoorsman OE Wheel Specs
The 2011 Ram Outdoorsman (Full-Size Truck) uses a 5x139.7 bolt pattern with a 77.8mm center bore. Factory wheels are 17x8.0J F/R.
Why the factory spec works for most owners:
- Supports higher payload and towing capacity
- Preserves ground clearance for towing, hauling and light off-road use
- Matches tire sizing commonly available for this class of vehicle
- Maintains clearance for the factory suspension and brake package
ANKUSI builds these wheels — we are the forging factory, not a reseller. For the Ram Outdoorsman (2011) 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.

A Note on Clearance
Final clearance depends on the exact tire model, suspension height, brake package, alignment and vehicle tolerances. A physical test fit is recommended before production.
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 Ram spec, or want a wheel built to a custom offset for your Ram Outdoorsman? Contact ANKUSI with your bolt pattern and offset target and we will confirm the correct forged wheel spec for your build.
Offset and Backspacing: Factory Wheel vs Options
Backspacing ≈ width/2 + ET/25.4 + 0.5 in. "Inward" means closer to the suspension; "outward" means closer to the fender lip.
| Setup | Size | ET | Backspacing | Inward vs OE | Outward vs OE |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Factory (OE) | 17x8J | ET19 | 5.25 in (133 mm) | — | — |
| Flush | 17x9J | ET0 | 5.00 in (127 mm) | −6 mm | +32 mm |
| Maximum | 18x9J | ET-12 | 4.53 in (115 mm) | −18 mm | +44 mm |
Vehicles With the Same Hub as the Ram Outdoorsman (5x139.7, 77.8 mm Bore)
In our database, 27 other vehicle entries from 4 makes use exactly the same 5x139.7 bolt pattern and 77.8 mm center bore. Factory wheels from these cars bolt on and center on the hub without rings; offset and width still have to be checked.
5x139.7 is used by 0.9% of the vehicle pages in our English fitment guide (56 of 6,503); 50.0% of those also use a 77.8 mm center bore.
Hub-Centric Rings for a 77.8 mm Center Bore
A wheel with a center bore larger than 77.8 mm needs a hub-centric ring. The most common combinations:
| Wheel bore | Ring size |
|---|---|
| 78.1 mm | 78.1 → 77.8 mm |
| 84.1 mm | 84.1 → 77.8 mm |
| 93.1 mm | 93.1 → 77.8 mm |
| 100.1 mm | 100.1 → 77.8 mm |
ANKUSI forged wheels are bored to exactly 77.8 mm for this vehicle, so no ring is needed.
Frequently Asked Questions
What bolt pattern (PCD) does the Ram Outdoorsman use?
The 2011 Ram Outdoorsman uses a 5x139.7 bolt pattern.
How many lug bolts does the Ram Outdoorsman use?
The Ram Outdoorsman 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 Ram Outdoorsman?
The Ram Outdoorsman'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 Ram Outdoorsman?
Factory wheels on the Ram Outdoorsman are 17x8.0J F/R.
What is the biggest wheel size I can fit on my Ram Outdoorsman without rubbing?
The most aggressive fitment we recommend without fender work is 18x9.0J at ET-12 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 Ram Outdoorsman?
For a flush look with minimal to no rubbing, we recommend 17x9.0J at ET0 offset as a starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Ram Outdoorsman.
Do I need wheel spacers for my Ram Outdoorsman?
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 Ram Outdoorsman?
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" 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 Ram Outdoorsman?
The Ram Outdoorsman 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.
