This summer, I bought a set of factory Magnum RT wheels (same as Charger wheels) for my Chrysler 300C. I installed the BF Goodrich g-Force T/A KDWS high performance tires in 245/55-ZR18 size to replace the OEM 225/60-18 "grand touring" tires from Continental. The improvement in handling and braking was substantial. This is the tire to buy if you're keeping your stock wheels and want better handling.

On Monday, I traded the 300C in for a new SRT8, so I needed to return the car to stock. Now the wheels and tires are for sale. The wheels are perfect, with no scratches or curb rash and they are completely clean inside the barrel. They are so new and I kept them so clean that the brake dust hasn't had a chance to cause any pitting inside the barrel. There is plenty of remaining tread on the BFG tires. The 300C only had 13,000 miles on it and a tiny fraction of those miles were run on the Charger wheels.

I'm asking $800 for the set of four wheels and tires. You can pick them up locally if you are within driving distance of Maplewood, NJ (zip 07040) or you can pay for UPS Ground shipping to your location.

If you're interested in the wheels, send me an email at david@zeckhausen.com.

You can see how clean the inside of the wheels are. New SRT8 in background! :)

OK, no takers so far. I'm going to put them up on eBay in the next day or two for $1 with no reserve. I'll let the marketplace dictate a fair price. I'll post a link here as soon as they are up on eBay.

I noticed in your thread that the StopTech calipers were also for sale. First do you still have them and of course how much and what is included. And will they fit my '06 Charger R/T. The thread is 3 weeks old but checking anyway.
Thank you,
Roger

However, they were sold about 3 weeks ago and I just received photos from the happy owner of the installed brakes on his 300C.

PS - The wheels are gone too. They were purchased by a pilot for Finnair and I shipped them to JFK airport where they ended up in the belly of a plane as cargo on the way to Finland at no cost to him! Ah, the perks of being a pilot! :)
