Has anyone tried the new Charger/Challenger oem wheels on an older B-Body?

No for backspacing reasons that wouldn't work unless you extended your spindles and put in a wider rear axle.

...or if you had some wide wheel spacers...the BS on the current-model wheels is a lot deeper.
I did that to an old Volvo many years ago, spacers were something like 1.5-2.0". Worked fine, but I don't know the Charger/Challenger BS dimensions.
I like the looks of the Challenger wheels they call Brass Monkey...but don't know if they'd fit.

Newer Challenger wheels are basically ALL backspacing. Looking at the Wife's in the garage I'm guessing at 7".
