    20X9 RIMS ON MAGNUM R/T?? (spacers?)

    Planning on getting some 20 x 9" srt replica rims for my r/t. Was wondering if I will need any spacers on the front if I am running 275/40/20 tires or any size tire for that matter.

    Also, does anyone have a pic of a Maggie with 315/35/20 on the rear and 275/40/20's on the front ???? If so, please post!!!


    Thanks,

    Mark

    Spacers?

    The distinction may be the offset. OEM's are 25.5 mm, many replicas are 20 mm.

    I had factory SRT8 wheels with Toyo Proxes4 275/40-20's on my magnum RT, and needed a 5mm spacer to clear the steering knuckle. I still couldn't get 2 credit cards between the knuckle and the tire sidewall. It all depends on the offset of the wheel and the tire section.

    the 20x9 srt8 wheel will diffinitly need spacer because of the offsetdifference vs RT and srt8, 3 to 5 mm hub centric spacer will do the job, now your tire size need to be smaller I would go with 245 or 255 not wider than that on the front and you should be golden...

    I'm not sure if people are reading this well enough. He says they are SRT REPLICAS. Those don't have the same offset as the real wheels. The offset is +20 so no spacers should be needed.

    What he said.... the replicas do not need spacers. Only authentic SRT rims on non SRT cars require spacers.

    Stock catback, and stock drivetrain

    With 275's on the front with a 20x9"/20mm offset wheel, you'll still be very close to the knuckle. Should be "OK" though.
