yesterday i purchased some wheels, today i mounted them. Not the best pics, but this will have to do.

info:
wheels: 22x9.5 Dropstars DS02
wheel structure: 1 piece
wheel weight: 41 pounds (compare to 38.5 lbs for OEM 20" srt wheels)
tires: 265/35/22 Nitto 420S
tire weight: not sure.

The tire:

The wheel:

Say goodbye to the old, hello to the new:

The car after install, car wash, and chrome cleaner for the wheels (yep, at autozone lol):

Debaged it:

Some "in progress" pictures:

How to store 4 wheels and tires in a chrysler:

The guys working their magic. I asked for all tools to be rubber coated

So shiny

looks tuner style i think

First chrysler able to fly:

Made sure to remove those little "washers" or whatever that are on 2 of the 5 studs

Almost done:

Got wheel gap?

Torque wrench: 100 lb ft .. good right? i couldnt remember 100 or 110, so i did 100... but i gotta go back in a few days to retorque

The bolt- no need to shave or anything. but my finger cannot fit under it.

As for powdercoating the centers cool vanilla (leaving the lip chrome) im still juggling the idea. I still have time to decide as I cant get it done right away.

I probably will lower the car via 1" MOPAR drop springs... but that wont be for a while.

Window tint I need to do soon, hopefully.

Dual exhaust is sitting in my garage, going to go to the shop tomorrow to get it checked out and hopefully fitted.

I also want k2 LED smoked tails.

Any questions or comment, please post.
