Default 09 SRT rims..

Is it just me or do those rims on the SRT look heavier than the car itself?

I agree the rims are not so great... I will be replacing mine. Some nice chrome deep dish craigers

Only one problem I have with Cragar, as much as the I have always loved their classic look, I have never seen them bigger than 15", but that was the size in the day.

Oh I hope I can get them custom. Im not sure if I like the 20" that size starts to look like the rubber band type tire.

Oh definetely! I think they look good on other vehicles but I need more rubber on my tires.

Though it doesn't look like it, the Challenger has humongous wheel wells! The standard tire on the SRT8 is what, a 245/45/20? That's a good amount of tire there; the wheel doesn't look a giant piece of metal with a varnish of tire around it. I think we'll find in the future you can go with a wider 20" that still is very good looking without wincing over each highway joint. I suspect 22"s might look pretty good too. I guess we'll find out soon though.

I will changing the wheels on my SRT8 to these wheels. It still has that classic look, they are chrome and are a deep dish style wheel. (available in 20").

Nice choice. I noticed these, but the biggest they go is 18 x 9.5 and I gotta wonder if that would clear the front brakes.[sm=smiley25.gif]
