Default Wheel and Hood Questions

I have an 08 1500 QC 4WD Hemi; SBC Composite CAI (side mount). DETONATOR YELLOW . Looking to go 18" wheels with 35's, also looking for a functional Ram Air hood that ducts to the side where the OEM airbox was.

Looking for feedback - I've looked at Good Hoods and some others, looking for something different than the SRT style.

As for the 18's, does anyone know if a different offset is needed for caliper clearance switching from the OEM 20's to 18's ?

Will get pix up after the hood swap is done.

A lot of guys like the SRT 10 hoos but other like the Venom and a few others. As for the rims v/s calipers, its not the offset of the rims that you need to worry about but rather the diameter of the rims. However, at 18s, you will be fine.
