Some car enthusiasts come to this very soon, while others only later but we all get to that stage eventually - after a while of owning your truck, it no longer feels that exciting, and so we start looking at possible upgrades. And what else to start with than getting a brand-new set of shiny rims? However, with the vast range of available options and endless tire combinations, it can become daunting to make the right choice, after scrolling through wheel catalogs for hours. So, what are the best Ram 1500 wheel and tire combinations?
With the many available rims, here are only a few of our favorites:
Black Rhino Armory
The Black Rhino Armory rims have quite an unusual design, which is perfect for frequent off-roaders. The wheels are heavy-duty, and that is not just in the looks. They have been made for heavy-duty use on unpaved roads and are resistant to bending and cracking. The looks are completed with a matte black finish, which creates a premium look among some of the more traditional-colored wheels.
Fuel Wheels Sigma
If you’re after a more sporty option, you’ll be happy with the matte bronze Fuel Wheels Sigma. The two-tone color finish makes them look very modern, which is further complemented by the narrow spokes but don’t get confused - they’re still rugged and will do well even off-road. But be careful, with such looks, it would be a shame to scratch them. Fuel Wheels are known for lightweight rims and the Sigma model is no different.
Method Race Wheels MR318
The gold Method Race Wheels MR318 wheels has a slight retro-performance look. Accented with a gold color finish, they completely transform the looks of any truck. Built for both off-road and highway driving, they offer great versatility and robustness. The MR318 uses an advanced aluminum construction, a five-spoke design, and beadlock styling.
What Tires to Pair Your Rims With?
Proper rims need to be paired with capable tires. Here are some of the favorites from our shop:
Michelin LTX M/S2 All-Season Tire
If you’re not much of an off-roader and most of your driving is on paved surfaces, the Michelin LTX M/S2 tires are the perfect choice for you - a premium all-season tire designed for trucks and SUVs. It excels in providing a smooth, quiet ride, and provides great traction on wet and dry roads, making it a favorite for long highway drives and daily use. Moreover, it is fuel-efficient, has a high load-carrying capacity, and features Michelin’s EverGrip technology for enhanced grip in light snow.
Yokohama Geolandar M/T Tire
Our second pick are the Yokomaha Geolandars tires. This time we’ve selected a mud-terrain tire, which puts off-road performance at the forefront. Its aggressive tread pattern and deep lugs provide exceptional traction in mud and gravel. To improve resistance to cuts and chips, the Geolandar tires use a construction with triple polymer compounds and sidewall reinforcements.
Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/T Tire
Yet another tire type - this time all-terrain. The Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/T combines off-road capability with on-road comfort quite well by using a hybrid tread design featuring large, angled blocks for superior grip on dirt, sand, and rocky surfaces, while providing a quiet, stable ride on highways. Produced by an almost legendary manufacturer Mickey Thompson, you are sure to get one of the best quality tires available.
