Midnight Blue 300C w/SRT8 Wheels&Tires

[steverwrx]

New photos of "Clyde". My wife named the car. I am very happy with the look and performance of the new tires and wheels. All of you who changed out the stock tires already know how poor the handling was. The new Goodyears handle awesome! Seems more stable at higher speeds too

Looks good. Where'd you get 'em? How much?

Looks good... Here is what it would look like without a lot of that wheel gap. PRetty big difference.

[Model 57]

"know how poor the handling was"; with the stock wheels? I think that it handles quite well, and a hell of a lot better than 90+% of the new cars out there.

It handles well, but taking it past where most people drive shows just how much of a boat it can be. I'm a kid, so I drive dumb and fast, but I've done road racing schools, so I know how to take corners, and the 300 really doesn't do them that great, especially w/ stock tires... fat sidewalls and mediocre grip. I can't wait to get some lower sidewall, wider, performance tires on.

Put some 20's and some higher performance tires on your car and you will agree with me. For a big car the stock 18's handle OK for what they are designed for - high mileage, nice ride. With the 20's on the ride quality is very close to stock and handling is much improved in my opinion.

Look great, but I Have some questions.

Did you have to use spacers do the difference in offset requirements between the two vehicles.

Where did you get them?

How much were they?

Running the Goodyear Eagle RSA 245/45/20. No spacers or grinding required. The 255/45/20 Goodyear Eagle F1 are slightly too wide for front fitment. The wheels should be available from your local dealer soon in the $450-$500 range.

Steve,

What do you think about running the 255 Goodyear's in the rear with the 245's up front? Please advise, as I have a blimp tattooed on my rear end...I think all old Goodyear retirees do.
