24" on 2006 SRT8 w/ UAS kit, info/opinions?

I have a stock 300c SRT8, looking to finally make the rims decision for my ride.
Would love to go for the 24s, but I am sure the performance that I love from this car might really suffer.

Anyone already have or know of a 300 SRT8 on 24s? How it drives, handles etc.

I have found a set of TIS07 24x10, 5x115 single drilled bolt pattern with +18 offset. Wrapped in Pirelli 275/25/24 tires.

I was told that these will fit onto the car....


I also plan on installing a UAS kit in the near future...so any info on how the kit will work on 24's would also be appreciated!

PLEASE DON'T DO THAT THE SRT8. The car was made for performance and your going to do the complete opposite. You should have gotten a 300c. Thats more suited for the bling bling. The srt8 has a great performance suspension and your thinking of putting it on airbags . Hey to each his own. Wish you luck on your project.

But enough of my personal opinion. Those tires will clear the fenders with no problem. There is guys here run 305's with no rubbing and the 300 can suck up 24's and have breathing room. The air suspension should clear everthing since the compressor is in the trunk. Check with the supporting vendors here they can give you exacts on the air suspension or ask Big Bob(member). He has air suspension on his car for quite a while now.

Hope this helps

Here you go.........................

24" ers on an SRT8?

More info here...................Chrysler 300C with 24" BSA Type347 TB wheels


And welcome to the forum . Post up some pics if you go that route . Like Will / NYCSRT-8 said you will be losing a bit of performance , ride quality and adding quite a bit of weight to your SRT-8 if you went this route but maybe that wont affect you if you dont drive the car hard and are doing it for shows . Good luck , Mike .

Welcome aboard and congrats!!!!! If you decide to go with 24x10 you will have to roll your fenders back. U.A.S. is the SIIIIIIIIIICKEST!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the replies

Well looks like I have alot to consider before making the decision on 24"s or just sticking with 22"s.

UAS kit def looks like something I will be getting done though.....

Yep.thats the one . And it's not his daily driver.......only his weekend car . Still .he should be able to tell you about his ride quality.......and I bet you would suffer a little poorer gas mileage with 24's .

You should definately get the U.A.S. kit because it's SIIIIIIICK!!!!!!! You should consider getting a set of light weight 22's. You don't want to lose any performance, that is why you bought the SRT.
