Ram 1500 DT with Fuel Contra matte black machined wheels

The Ram 1500 DT represents the modern evolution of the quintessential American pickup truck. With bold lines, cutting-edge technology and a powerful engine, it's hard to improve on a vehicle that's already so complete. But thanks to 22x12 Fuel Contra wheels with Offset -43 in a machined matte black finish and Nitto Ridge Grappler tires, this RAM's trim reaches a new level of aesthetic aggression and off-road functionality.

Fuel Contra 22x12 -43 Offset rims: style and performance

The Machined matte black Fuel Contra rims are a popular option for those who want to give their RAM a racy look. The 22x12 size with Offset -43 creates a pronounced protrusion from the bodywork, giving an irresistible stage presence.

Thanks to the depth of the channel and the machined design of the finish, the Contra stands out from any other off-road rim, maintaining a sturdy construction to tackle even the most challenging roads.

Effect protrusion and mudguards

With a Offset -43, these rims fall into the "very bulging" category, exceeding 2 cm off the original track width. In cases like this, it is necessary to equip the vehicle with widened fenders to fall within the legal limits and avoid debris thrown from the roadway.

• Normal: +20 to -10 Offset (no widening)
• Sportant: -10 to -30 Offset (need widening)
• Very Overhanging: over -30 (wide fenders needed)

Nitto Ridge Grappler Tires

This setup mounts Nitto Ridge Grappler tires, among the most versatile in the Nitto range. Ideal for both road and light off-road use, they provide quietness, traction and durability. Pairing them with 22-inch Fuel Contra rims enhances the Ram 1500 DT's profile, giving it an imposing appearance and a confident ride even off the asphalt.

Rough Country Pocket Mudguards

To contain the protrusion of the rims and give the vehicle an even more rugged look, Rough Country's signature Pocket Style fenders were installed. These are fenders with 2 inches of widening, compatible with metal bumpers, which protect the body from stones, mud and debris raised by the wide wheels.
