Affordable Winter Wheels Setup: Ram 2363

[TollKeeper]

Just some food for thought here..

If you put the 2363 wheels on a Riv, and with the lower weight rating, and the known cracking issue they have. If the wheel does fully crack out, seriously damaging your Riv, and the insurance comp investigates it, you may be on the hook..

Saying that, I have yet to ever see a insurance company investigate wheels, unless they are obviously wrong for the vehicle they are on....

Something like this...

The only reason I mention this is because my buddy is a insurance adjuster, and he saw me searching for these wheels, and pointed out both things to me.

1. Has anyone found out what the "official" weight rating is to say it's lower than the OEM wheels? I did a deep dive and have not found it. (Not loaded question), but would appreciate if someone can provide.

2. Also in my search, the mentions tied to wheel cracking have been general for aluminum wheels and the disclaimer that aluminum wheel fatigue is something to consider and to always check to see if cracks are developing. It was not specific for any one brand.

Maybe the concern should be more cast vs. forged.

I dove deep as well, no luck. If I ever do find official numbers, I'll share regardless of findings.

Question,
‘We’ve discussed the 2363 wheels for winter snow tire use. I found a set that looks like the ones shown in this forum only chrome. Is it safe to assume that they will fit my R1S?
Has anyone used the chrome and if so is the stamped number on the wheel the same?
Thanks

These are what I found wit Goodyear AT tires.

Those will work. Just a different finish.

To recap on rubbing, has anyone had additional rubbing besides what was already posted?
275/65/20 LT Blizzak -rubbing low (heavy bumps) and lowest (turns and bumps)
Stock AT (276/65/20) same as above
275/60/20 AS - rubbing low big bumps

I'm looking at 275/60/20 115S Blizzaks or X-Ices. Will finally get my 2363s Monday!

Nothing to report on rubbing yet. Mine come back from powder coating next week.

But if you're able, will you take some pictures of the inside barrel? I remember seeing some information on there (manufacturer date, etc.) on mine. But I forgot to take pictures and don't remember if it had a wheel load reading on there.

Here is a photo someone else posted in this thread and a dirtier photo my seller sent.
Sadly no load ratings on these ones.

Thanks, I've got those photos of the back of the spokes though.

I'm talking about markings on the barrel 'under the tire'. Mine had bunch but I didn't get photos and suspect they'll be gone following powder coating.

I had the blizzak lt and had rubbing in lowest when I turned and also at low when I hit bumps.

I drove over 2500 miles on a road trip, driving a good portion on lowest before I noticed... Yeah not smart but no damage!

No idea, want to give them a try?

There's a guy in Cranbrook advertising a Ram 1500 for parts on Facebook Marketplace. He had the correct wheels.

Thems the wheels!

I have 275/60R20 Nokian Outpost ATs. I haven't had any rubbing even in the few times I have used lowest in sport mode.
