20x10 rear and 20x8.5 front.  Apparently they do whatever offset you want.  The current Boss 338s are +14mm front and +20mm rear.  Anyone have suggestions on offsets?  I'm not that familiar.  I plan to mount 305/35R20 Nitto 555Rs on the rear.

 

Update 3/1/15:

 

Wheels and tires mounted up just fine.  Plenty of room for this combo on the driver side.  The passenger side was a bit close on the fender liner near that "hump" at about 3 o'clock.  I used a heat gun and reshaped the fender liner to be as close to the hump as I could get it and now have about 4mm of clearance.  Went for a spirited drive and no issues.

 

New wheels look great and changed the personality of the car a bit.  I had the 338s for 5 years and while I really liked them I was ready for a change and these fit the bill.  Bonus is that there is PLENTY of room for big brakes (stay tuned ). 

 

The 305/35R20 555Rs have been better than I expected if I'm honest.  Full report once I get a few more miles on them but I did about 60 miles yesterday and they're smooth, quiet, feel good when pushed in a corner, and GRIP.  The INVOs I had on the car were honestly quite dangerous with 600RWHP.  I could spin them up at 80MPH in 4th pretty easy and forget about anything over half throttle in 1-3.  These 555Rs I can actually use about 70% of the cars power in 1st and 2nd and they hook real nice by 3rd.  These tests were done in 50 degree air and the tires are brand new so I can only assume they'll get even better in warm weather and once they're broken in.  I can still spin them up in 2nd if I want, but I have to be trying to do that and even then they still grip enough to really propel the car forward mashing me in to the driver seat.  The Invos would just spin and spin like I was on marbles so this is certainly an upgrade.  I'm real curious to see how my 0-60 times look now.

 

I'll have to see how long these tires last, but if I get 8-10K out of them I'll be happy.

No offence but I don't like them. Your boss' are nicer lookin on your car.. If,I'm not mistaken off set is 20 f 25 r
Sorry yours is a r/t. Wouldn't your offsets be the same for the new rims

[Speedy]

Just looking to do something different, no worries on varying opinions.

 

I'm not sure if the +14mm and +20mm are the best off sets or not.  Need someone like Novawagonmaster to school me on that.

About time. I like them.

[DevilDogge]

I can dig 'em.  I think the thrust style rims are too common nowadays. Why not go for 315s on the back?  I think that's a little more common of a tire size, and you get more options. 

[AvantSrt8]

Concave? I like them.

[El Diablo]

I like them way better than the Boss wheels, jmo.

I like a unique looking wheel, the Boss's are not that, they don't look BAD but they have a look that is kinda outdated IMO. I want to put wheels on wifes Charger when the Dart is back putting the smackdown back down. I want either 20x9 or 20x9.5 at all 4 corners with a 275/40/20 like the Hellcats use. I like the Bravado Tributes mostly because of their size, and a black wheel is what momma wants.

[toofart]

I like 'em better than the Boss wheels too. But I also like the stock 18 in hers, so take my opinion with a grain of salt

[Chally]

These are awesome. I hope you do get them, I'm tired of the 5 different wheel styles everyone has on their lc/x

[@srt_n8]

A 20x10 with a 25 offset will be a 1/2" farther out on the face & a 1/2" farther in on the back than a stock SRT wheel that is 20x9 & 25 offset. I don't like much poke on the face because the stock wheels already sit close enough to the fender. A 20x10 with 20 offset will poke out .70" more than a stock wheel. If you are lowered, that could cause problems. I use this site http://www.willtheyf...set2=20#content

[KeavDog]

What do they weigh jay?

[Ed_R]

Speedy, I have Nitto Motivo 315s on the back of my R/T with an 18mm offset, with rolled fenders it does not rub.

I suggest a 25mm offset up front if you want to run 275s. I have 0 offset and had to use 245s.

[Don@AGP]

Those are nice

[Speedy]

Yep, I dig them too.  Gonna make some calls today to see what offsets they recommend etc.

 

I'm not sure what they weight but I imagine pretty light.  I'll ask that as well.

 

Thanks everybody for the feedback.

[blackdeuce]

I like the new wheels.  I think they'll look good.

 

When I've toyed around with different tires and/or wheels, I've used the website linked below.  I know what I have now and how much room I have.  I'll compare that to a different scenario and the calculator tells you what the difference is.

I think they look good, go for it!

[us1champ]

Just another option but i have always thought these are bad ass and look awesome on a challenger

I like the one's Speedy picked out, just me but I can't stand wheels that have all the bolts showing from the front. Looks way to Euro for me.

[TA340]

I like them as well Jay. 20x10 with a +25mm offset is perfect and you will not have to roll fender lips.
