Yep, those are the factory AWD rims for the Charger. 19" size.

A Flowmaster Force II exhaust system is coming this week for the Charger. Just under $600 shipped from Amazon. Hoping to get the Mopar chin spoiler on before the Mohegan Sun show. Also looking into options for removing the rear spoiler. Just too damned annoying to clean and dry around it. Only a few minor issues have cropped up:

-Parking brake pedal pad split apart.
-Shifter bezel slider squeaks when moving shift lever.
-Horns are weak.
-Recall for front door handles.

I'll stop by the dealer this week to schedule an appointment.

Flowmaster Force II exhaust has been on a couple weeks. I'm definetely satisfied with the sound and loudness of it. The door handle recall, park brake pedal pad, shifter slider, and horns were done this past Friday. I've changed my mind on the chin spoiler... for now. I think the front bumper looks good without it. Also the car is higher in the front so the functionality of a parking curbstone scraper isn't needed. 68-74 Grille badge installed. New picture from this past Sunday:

Some more recent pictures. This is from The Great American Car Show in late July. A bunch of us met up at the Dedham Mall, then drove up together.

A shot after the show at Larz Anderson Park.

I've had it to several Mass Cruisers Cruise Nights at Patriot Place as well.

And there were a few in-between that. Can't wait for this year's season to start!!! Planning on going to Lime Rock for a Sandy Hook benefit in April.

Installed the factory shelf subwoofer and wired it correctly to the amplifier. It at the moment is not functioning, but it isn't high on my priority list.
