What do you think of these rims on a Charger?

18x8 235/50
18x9.5 295/45

I'm just watching and gleaning info, as I'm near this decision on my project also. Thinking of 17's on front and 18's on rear. Also wondering more or less caliper. I know ultimately it's my choice but appreciate some really good ideas.

 

[furious70]

If I could have gotten a better height for the front in a 17 I would have, but the 235/50/18 was as good as anything.
I have atturo 235/55/17 and 275/55/17 on my fury I think. They don't make them anymore tho

First picture first page OP. Five Spoke wide look good in most persuasions and applications. Modern too. Others look “busy. Give yourself a break at cleaning time. Easy to clean, no tooth brushes needed.

Eagle St older than the hills on my 66 Satellite that my buddy drives and said it had a vibration. Lol

I’m not a flat star spoke fan and had Rockets on my 71 when I bought it in 76. Was going to go with the first one in 17’s on my RR restoration but decided to change the style to the second pic. So going with 18’s for better disc brake clearance.

Ya I have original torq thrusts now and wanted something different

I like the rims in Post #35 - not too gaudy. They compliment the car nicely rather than distracting from the car itself.

I've got some tires off my dually that make that tire look factory fresh!

If that black Charger was mine.... I'd put gray 17" daisies on it to be different.

Yes and the torq thrusts are classic, but I wanted something new when dropping all this dough
Rims and tires arrive tomorrow

That's exactly the car I was thinking of. I ADORE that look!

Answer (to the thread question): They're ugly. They look like a giant-sized starfish.

Tires have arrived. Hard to not play hooky and install them

Good choice! I have this pic on my computer for paint choice, Like the wheels too so now I know what they are.
