Should i bag the srt8????

[onebadcbr929]

I have a 2007 srt8, and im trying to decide if i should go with 26's or just go with 24's and bags, how would bags affect the ride, i have never rode in one with bags so i don't know what to expect, i need some opinions from people with experience. Thanks.

Not being a smart arse here at all but I would not put anything over 20" wheels on an SRT and I certainly wouldn't wreck the handling by bagging one.

I would get "C" if you want to go the bag route.

Just my 2 cents.

If you bag with UAS kit, the performance will be great. I've used coilover in the past and hate the ride comfort. The air is a better ride then stock matched with aftermarket koni shocks. I would not go bigger then 22" on the srt, if you still want performance. check out my link out see what Im talking about.

and is this spoken from experience on air and or wheels 22" or bigger or just speculation?

I'm sure he's just pointing out that big wheels generally take away performance from any vehicle.

The SRT8 is pretty highly tuned and properly set up for one thing... hauling ass. Almost every bling mod is just going to slow you down.

Not necessarily, a forged set of 22s can weight the same if not less then stock 20s and the smaller sidewall will improve handling due to less sidewall flex.

Bags can be used to adjust the ride height to best suit the driving situation. Wanna go rip around the track? Then slam it down. Wanna cruise a country road then lift it up. You can also add bags with out a ton of weight being added by using aluminum tanks or manifold valve blocks.

^^^^ like he said, with air ride I'm better in turns then the ricers( honda's acura's in my area). they all think I have alot of suspension work done, then I hit the switches and lay it out. Just the koni shocks and the air ride.The look on their face is, priceless! I will be upgrading the sway bar soon, for even better handling.

if you want bags get the base model 300 or maybe a C but I wouldnt waste it
if you want big rims get the base model or C
I saw an srt8 today with what looked like 24's and I wanted to smack the guy

if you wanna go fast take the loot from 26's and buy a blower

[onebadcbr929]

I don't care about going fast, i have sportbikes for that, the reason i got the srt8 is because everyone was saying the v-6 didnt have enough power to turn the 26's , so what i'm really looking for is if i should just do 26's and leave the suspension stock, or do 24's and bags, cause i don't want to do the bags if it's going to make it ride ruff, or mess up the handling.

The C would handle the rims. Im sure someone will chime in but the suspension on the srt8 is good to begin with so if you wanted to bag you should have bought a C instead. 26's wont fit without rolling the fenders and some 24's as well.
