Ok, so i'm not a charger owner YET, but i'm trying to pick one up in a few weeks...

the wheels and tires i've been looking at(please dont yell) are American Racing RT-S's in 20x8.5 and 22x9.5, 20's for the front, 22's for the rear wrapped in 365/45r20 up front and 265/35r22 in the rear...

I've already checked on the backspacing, offset, and everything, they seem like they will fit, but no websites have actually listed listed that they will fit yet, including AR's site...

I'm trying to get a good side shot of the r/t and a good frontal shot of the wheels to do a lil photochopping, but i'm already positive it would look very good with the RTS's in Black with a polished lip

Here's a picture of the wheels...

Any opinions?

second chop, seeing as a black wheel is hard to see in the shadows, i just chopped your wheels since they are very similar...

eck, now that i look at it, no, it wouldnt look good at all.....

maybe if the sidewalls were all the same height and the wheels sat even with the ground instead of the front sitting "higher".....

I would stick with 20's or 22's in the front and rear but maybe with some wider rubber in the back. The 20/22 combo just doesnt look right.

It depends on how you rotate them. :wink:

I guess the question I want to ask is what's everyone's opinion on the best tire size and set up for someone using their car as a semi daily driver but also wants to go to the track every once in a while and lite em up? :rockon:

Now those are wheels I LIKE!!! Are they powdercoated? I just think that the charger owners where I live kinda overdid the whole chrome look.
