18"s for a Charger V6?

Hi

I'm thinking on changing my 17" rims.

The most popular size is 18" and it looks better, of course.

But since I got a 3.5 V6 I would want to know if I'll feel a worse performance?

What about the acceleration? and the braking?

Thanks

...and the real look it's different or the change is insignificant?
Could somebody show pictures before (17") and after (18")?

Thanks

17 and 18 inch wheels is the best bet for V6's because you wont lose any power like you would with 22's.

Just look up Daytona wheels from 06-10 they're all 18's or the retro five spoke wheel on Google Images. Being only an inch difference in diameter it makes a slight difference, but mostly you'll notice the fact you have a completely different styled wheel :D

How about 245/55/18 or 255/55/18? Will those larger and wider sizes make a huge difference?

Just an input. All stock 17's to 18's. with Mopar stage 1 springs. No rub but then again it's not the stage 2. So it might be different.

I love the ride with the coilovers. Better handling and a much more aggressive stance! :cool:

H20buryCharger, thanks for your pics.
The comparison is very clear for me.

By the way, nice play to take pics :)

H20bury, Nice touch with the front lip and guards. Haven't seen many pics with that and it sets off the suspension change well.
