D1500 rotors / stock ford rims
Can't get the wheels on the Dodge rotors.....I need a inside / outside caliper to measure the exact amount of interfereance ....but the opening in the wheel will NOT go over the centering hub on the rotor.....is this common ? .....it's close....but .....ideas ?

Re: D1500 rotors / stock ford rims
guessing you installed a dakota kit
dunno about the new stuff but about 25 years ago i had a dodge van, got a flat and the wheel would not come off.
drove up and down the dirt road with no lug nuts then jacked it up again and took many whacks with a sledgehammer to get it off.
thats when i noticed it was a ford wheel.
guessing again the rotor hubs on dodge have not changed in the years.

Ford had a big center hole starting in the mid 70's & a small center hole on the older cars.

Gotcha, when you say outies......are they stock looking wheels that let you run the dog dish hubcaps ?

Not to butt in, but "outies" are the wheels with the knobs on the outside of the center ring (66 and later trucks), it's the "innies" that the dog dish caps fit. Little nubs on the inside to hold the caps.
If you understand what you’re doing, you’re not learning anything.

Re: D1500 rotors / stock ford rims
this is the best thing i ever saw to describe innies and outies, thanks to Keith at Fordification, gem of a guy
http://www.fordification.com/tech/hubcapID.htm
--->scroll to the bottom of the page. There are bottle cap hubcaps that fit both innies and outies, but now you know what they are.

I used Dakota hubs and aftermarket 5 on 4.5" wheels. Sorry, can't help you.
