anyone know why Dodge couldn't at least get some good looking wheels on the new charger? (See link below). Are these too expensive for production or technical issues or something else???

99 Charger Concept wheel

I like the R/T's polished wheel

The 17s on the V6 models aren't that hot though...

I agree 100%. That's why I upgraded the wheels on my SXT to the R/T's polished wheels.

 

[SOLD!]

I bought the SXT and paid all of C$285 to upgrade to the 18" wheels. I must say its the best 300 bucks I spent. The car looks great and drives great. The dealer paid for tinting, so that's the best free stuff I got. :happy:

you were asking why they didnt use those wheels, right?

 

[KurbyRTHemi]

I agree, the polished R/T wheels are awesome!!

yes.... I was. But I don't believe its because they "look like crap." They ('99 concept wheels) are by far more aggressive and 'muscle car-like' than what they are using for production now. The current wheels are plain (polished or not)

Those lame wheels belong on a 97 Camaro. Imagine those on the current Charger, they'd look stupid.

The SRT-8 wheels are awesome.

the current wheels have straight lines that compliment the chargers boxy design. those rounded wheels complimented the more aerodynamic design of that charger.

custom wheel option, custom badge, removed post, blacked-out windows, shaved handles

I like 'em. Polished w/clear coat would be nicer than silver paint, but like 'em just the same.
