Default Wheel and Tire Options?

I would like to hear what the options are for aftermarket wheels and tires for a Stratus R/T Sedan. I know the stock 17' wheels are a close fit, so I thought I would find out what some of the sucesses and failures were from those who have already made the switch.

Thanks

I'm not sure if you're looking for company names or just sizes. As far as the names go I cant help you there, but as far as the sizes go you could try plus sizing. That is where, say your stock wheel and tire setup is a 17 inch rim with a tire that has a 3 inch sidewall, you go to an 18 inch rim with a tire that has a 2 inch sidewall. This way even though the diameter of your rim is increased, the diameter of your entire wheel and tire setup stays the same.

the correct way to plus size
stock tire = 205/60/16
+1 = 215/50/17
+2 = 225/40/18
You can also go the other way
-1 = 195/70/15
-2 = 185/80/14
By doing this you keep the final drive ratio the same as the stock tire.
