I already have stock 20"s so hopefully it won't be as drastic a change as going from the 'C' stock to 22"s.
I wonder if the stiffer SRT suspension will lessen the blow with 22"s
If you referenced the NY Football Giants, I feel your pain. I'm a transplanted NY'er in LA and have to pay to watch the GMen lose.

San Francisco Giants but the pain is there my friend.
When I referenced 80lbs I was making a blanket statement regarding the overall added weight of a set of 1 piece forged 22" wheels over stock on a 300C. Your situation is certainly different. Most I think will be upgrading base - C versions and it is reasonable to assume that the majority will not be buying 3 piece wheels which are of course much lighter.
I cannot speak to the ride quality of an SRT8 as I have never ridden in one. I would think it would not be as great a difference however. Good luck to you.
