Default After market wheels

Has anyone found a site that will show wheel options on the Challenger? Tirerack.com usually allows you to view what the wheels look like on a car, but they don't have a photo of the Challenger available yet. I'd like to take the original wheels and tires off and put something a little wider in back and something with a chrome finish. I really want to see them on the car before I drop a couple grand though.
I'd really like to see Alcoa make the same stock wheels in a polished finish. I saw on Jay Leno's Chally video that he got a pair, but when I called Alcoa, they said they will not be making that wheel for the public. Must be nice to be a celebrity.

Default RE: After market wheels

I have been looking for an aftermarket wheel for some time, but now have the dealer investigating the cost of Chroming a set SRT Wheels. I actually love their look, but want to have them clad in chrome. He indicated they do have a local company who does this for them, and I know that my buddy had his Audi TT Wheels clad before he took delivery. Considering the SRT wheels are about $600 a pop, not having them sit because I went to the aftermarket would be a great benefit.

I was wondering myself if anyone is going to produce anything like the concept wheels.I was really dissapointed when I saw the wheels they're including on the cars.

I even saw on Jay Leno's garage that he already has replacement rims to be installed (w/ a mere 47 miles on the car). His appear to be the same look, just higher polish.

I think I'll leave mine as is. It's a value thing, not looking for bling.

i know i am going to change mine out to put 10" wide rims on the back... but it is a crap shoot not knowing what they will look like until one puts them on.. so far the only thing that i have come up with are these foose wheels... they should have a 3" to 4" negative offset on th back... i would like to see pics of other wheels on the car.

Anybody know if they make the neoClassic Mopar Rallye Wheels in the correct bolt pattern/back spacing for the new Challenger?

Check out Mirrorfinishpolishing.com. They put a mirror finish on a set of SRT8 wheels.
