I want to know whats the best size and tire for my srt8???

what do ya think.............

As a SRT-8 owner, we have a limited selection to choose from. Since we have the Big Brembo Brakes it's hard to get proper clearance of the wheels. I did some searching for some 22's and wanted some Asanti's with Black Centers. After talking to my wheel man, he said that Asanti would only do 22x8.5 all around and couldn't do the 10 or 10.5 that I wanted.

Now LB44 was able to get some 22x9 Lowenharts on his SRT-8 without any problems. I beleive he used a space up front to clear the brakes.

I've since got my factory wheels dipped in Chrome. Looks good, and only paid $800 and shipping vs. the $5400 I was going to pay for the Asanti's. So maybe I'll get me some 22's after there is a bigger selection.

I'm sure if you could go to a large shop that could try out different style wheels then you could come up with something. But with my current set-up, the wheel shop would have to eat the cost if they ordered them and they didn't fit.

Hope this helps!
