    challneger R/T offset same as Magnum R/T?

    looking at a set of 20's off a Challenger R/T (not the SRT). Basically the chrome Magnum and Charger SRT wheel/tire.

    Question is, if I read correctly you should add a front spacer to a non-SRT magnum when using DRT wheels. So do I need a spacer for my 05 R/T?

    Challenger R/T has the same offset as the other hemi equipped LX's. You will not need a spacer for a wheel that comes from factory on an R/T. The 20" chrome clad wheel available on the R/T Magnum, Challenger, and Charger is the same 20x8" wheel.

    R/T and SRT8 wheels are not the same wheel or the same size. SRT8 wheels (Challenger, Charger, 300, and Magnum) are all the same 20x9" size and 25.5mm offset, and would require a 3mm spacer on a non-SRT LX. Also, SRT8 wheels are not available in chrome from the factory, btw.

    OK - so these are actually only 20x8? so running a 275 tires would probably not work out as well. Thanks for the info, I appreciate it.
