Hey guys, Magnaflow sent over the pics from their photoshoot last night.

Love the stance, I prefer a little more rubber in the side walls myself though. Still the best Charger I have seen yet, just may change my mind about the car.

The wheels look effing stupid.

 

[needasrt4]

ok dude what ever

I like the style of the wheels it would just look better if they were 20's (those must be 22+) with some larger series tires like 40's.

 

[needasrt4]

20s just don't look right on these cars, and to get it as low as we wanted, we a to go with the 30 series tire, car has only 2.5" of ground clearance

 

[MPRSteve]

What size are those?

 

[needasrt4]

22" TIS 02 with 255/30/22 Nitto

20" even is what's on the SRT-8. It's the best I've seen so far, way better than super shiny ghetto aftermarket.

If you live in the northern half of the US, that is the type of car that necessitates a winter beater.

Although I prefer brushed chrome rims (7 point or similar) that car will definitelty turn heads wherever you go. Glad you did it in black rather than silver.

Don't get me wrong it looks like a show car but for practicallity 30 series tires ride like crap. I recently made the jump from 35 to 40 and the ride is a world of difference. Some deep dish 20's would have looked great and would have yeilded a much better ride with even 35-40's. Watch were you drive to, one small pothole will bend those rims. I had to replace two of them already from potholes!, and I was riding on 265/35/18's.

MPR, I sell wheels and tires for a living, we don't drive the car much, esp since its been out in Cali since May16th for Supercharger, its a weekend/show car. Rode on the same 30s in our Magnum as a daily driver. We're early 20s, ride quality doesn't bother us the least bit.

 

[needasrt4]

Same response those wondering why we did 22s rather than 20s, we sell wheels and tires for a living, we sell more the more attention we draw to ourselves and more heads we turn

North or South Cali?

 

[needasrt4]

L.A., we're in Georgia

 

[shrinkydinx]

how much $ you pay total?

 

[needasrt4]

thats a broad question, how much money do I have in the car or how much have I put into it, etc?

 

[GLHS837]

Let me throw the number of 8-9K, not including transportation. Add that in, make it 12ish. Just cause I like to guess stuff

 

[needasrt4]

$3k in transport, $8.5k in supercharger, about $3k in the wheels & tires, don't remember on headers. Its also got HID from our Magnum, Custom Leather Interior from our Magnum, Magnaflow Exhaust, and he has other goodies on order from the dealership
