Default Tire size fitment

Hello guys,

I'm about to get the 265/45/R20 for my rear tires(charger R/T), but I'm not sure if they will fit. I checked the tire size, and it seems quite large. Other websites suggest it might not work.

My wheel is 8.0 inches wide, so I'm relying on your help to guide me through this.

Thank you!

Stockers are 28.7 X 9.6, new size are 29.4X 10.4, So, not much bigger.... How much clearance do you have?

The car is stock; I haven't made many modifications to it, including the suspension. However, I do have the performance suspension, and the car is a 2022 model, if that is relevant to the chassis and clearance.

You need to keep the height the same between the fronts and rears or your ABS & TC will go haywire and if the difference is significant enough it'll go into limp mode. You can go wider but not taller. Stock tire size for 20x8's is 245/45R20. Same for 20x9's but the 275/40R20 fits on them perfectly. Since you have the 20x8's on an R/T that means you have a 5.7 car, which means you don't have the performance spindles UNLESS your car came with Brembos.
