    Just take it to a bad part of town....when the wheels are stolen you will have a really lowered look.



    Sorry.


    20"s are the smallest you can fit on the front 17"s on the back.

    If you plan on road racing I highly suggest the coilover route. However, I do understand that they are a little more pricey. My suggestion would be coilovers, we have several coilover options to choose from.. If you do want to go the less costly route you are in luck, the 2008 SRT's do not have the load leveling shocks in the rear, you have Bilsteins. Therefore you can use lowering springs to lower the car, whereas the 06-07's cannot.
    Here are the Hotchkis Lowering springs, these will work with your factory shocks.

    While you are tearing thinsg apart, this is a good time to also do the sways...we are currently running a Group Buy on Hotchkis sways, these make a huge difference and I highly suggest them for a track car!
    Here is the GB thread.
    Hotchkis Sway Bars - 0 Left at $329.88 ... but stay tuned!

    As far as wheels, there are sme 18" wheels that will clear our Brembos, when you are ready let us know and we can get you setup. We are into road racing at BMCP, so let us know how we can help. I have some other mods I would also suggest if you plan on doing track events regularly.
