Default Wheels

Thinking of getting my wheels black on my black 09 r/t. Wanted to take a poll. Should I get them powder coated, anodized, or neither. Not sure which is more durable powder coating or anodizing.

I saw somewhere on this site about a Cali company "Calchrome.com" that does a Black Chrome that looks super sweet on the SRT wheels.

I'm thinking of buying the SRT wheels for my R/T . Do you know how much they are . Are they the same width as the 20's on my R/T . Also wonding if they are as heavy in weight.

The cheapest I've seen the SRT 20" wheels was $738.00 each, but that was a while ago. They average around $799.00 each on ebay now - from what I've seen.
Pretty pricey if you ask me. Hope I never have to replace any / all of mine!

Good Luck!

I bought some 20"x9" Cragar SS wheels (old school 5 spoke chrome) at SEMA last fall and I plan on new tires as well but I don't know what size tire to go with since there doesn't look like there is much clearance. I would like to go with something bigger than the 245/45 on the front and 255/45 on the rear maybe a 255/45 on the front 305/45 on the rear??
The stock SRT8 wheels are only 20"x8" so I have to keep in mind that the tire will be stretched an inch wider already and I am using the Eibach springs that will bring the car down 1", anybody have any experience with larger tire sizes on their Challenger?
I have a 2008 Challenger 500 SRT8 (Canadian eh!), I would appreciate any advice or help as I don't want to buy the wrong size and find they rub.
