Nevermind the fact that the factory 20" wheels are stupid heavy.

I run 18" Borbet Type TS wheels in the winter with my snow tires. But I'm back to the heavy 20" factory wheels, now that the weather has turned nice.
The Borbet wheels have lots of caliper clearance and easily clear the stock SRT8 brakes. They even clear the StopTech 15" 6-piston big brake kit on my SRT8.
I imagine you could get Forgeline or Fikse to build you some much lighter 19" wheels that would improve handling a bit. But I haven't looked into alternative tires that would have the same (or close) circumference as stock.
