Can I Put 20's On My Stock SE Nitro?

Jerrod710 · #1 06-29-2009, 02:33 PM

I just bought a brand new Dodge Nitro SE and of course it has the ugly stock wheels 225/75/SR16's. I know the R/T Nitro comes from the factory with 20's and has a little different suspension than the SE. Well wish I could have got the R/T version but I'm a first time buyer and finance company wouldn't finance me for that one so I got the SE. So my question is of course, can I just buy some nice, shiny, bright 20" chrome wheels and some tires and slap them on my SE Nitro and calibrate the speedometer without having to modify things such as lift or any body moldings and whatnot?

According to Tirerack.com you could put 20" wheels and 22" wheels on the SLT version of the Nitro. They have a cool section that allows you to view the wheels on you vehicle as long asyou plug in ypu cars information. 16" to 20" will effect your speedo and the wheel manufacturer will supply paperwork to correct it (or they did with mine atleast),
