Got the rims mounted up this evening....havent taken the car out to get the full effect yet but daum....!!!! :o

Changes the whole look of the car.  That crappy bastard aluminum cap I got wont even stay on the rim!!   Gonna have to drive to the show minus 1 cap for the ride & put it on at the show.  hopefully YO ships out the new caps soon.

I still don't know what to think of the steelies yet.   Seems like too much of the same color on the the car.  If it were my car, I probably would have stuck with the magnums.  Maybe some wider shots of the car might change my mind but still kind of in the air on it.

      True,alot of the same color on a car,but gives it that"no frills,all business" look.NTM,probably how most came with,dog dish or hubcaps.
    And acutauly,my cars color,black,is the only color Charger I don't like them on as with the tire being black right next to the rim.To much black now.Not saying I will never have and put a set on,because after your car is done,you can get bored real easy and want to change it up alittle.
  The only thing Chris has left he can do is tear it down and go back to the orig color red!  :D Maybe in a couple years????::)

And yes Chris,def some more shots!  :yesnod:

 they look nice...would love to see some more pics with them on  :2thumbs:

I definitely gotta see this outside now! Wow!  :drool5: :drool5:

Glad to hear they didn't get too screwed up when they were mounted. I'm relieved that the color match is good, too!  :cheers:

Gladly the 3 caps stayed on (got 1 comment about the cap missing)

Chris----car looks like a million dollars.  I use all the pictures you post as reference for my restoration.  And I like the color you used better than the stock R4 or R6.  I bought a set of the same dog dishes when Mike first got them in several years ago.  Will probably go ahead and order a set of the same steelies you used. 

What make are the redline 255/60/15's?

Chris you know me by now so I won't muddy up this thread with my opinion about Magnum 500's on Chargers.....oops, I think I just did. :D

Actually, your car looks pretty good like that. Maybe sumthin' to do with the color :scratchchin: but it works well together. :2thumbs:

Question:  What did the car come with originally?

I got the tires from www.dbtires.com a while ago (2002)  They are a generic brand made by BF Goodrich (not exactly sure of the name)
