Default Will 18" fit my 09 SRT?

Even though I will propably not drive the Challenger much during the winter season, I do want to put winter tires on her (have to do it by Law here in Sweden...)...
Thinking about a pair of 18"...will they even fit (thinking about the brakes etc)?
Will they fit even if I lower the car?

The rims from Chrysler 300C, Dodge Magnum and Charger will fit?
Any other cars?

Yeah it will fit, but why don't you just buy all season tires for the 20" rims? Or are you looking for more tread depth than what you can get on the 20"?

Here in Sweden it's propably easier, and cheaper to get hold of a pair of 18" with rims, rather than just the 20" tires...

18" R/T wheel's on a SRT-8.......................


I believe that the R/T wheel will only work on the rear of your 08 SRT8
and will not work on the front because they won't clear Brembo calipers.

Answering my own Question...

Yes & No...

Some will fit, others wont.

Since my dad was going to get a new set for his 300C I took his and tried them out...

They fit, with just a couple of mm clearence to the calipers (just to be safe I put 3mm spacers on)....

Well, Winter Tires are on since a couple of weeks, though no real snow here in Sweden (Stockholm) yet
