I absolutely love the aggressive look of these wheel, tires. Could u help me identify the sizes of the rims 15x7? 15x8? And possibly guesstimate the tire sizes? I know its impossible to be 100% sure but you guys have more experience than me at this.

My guess, 15x7 on the front, 15x10 on the rear for the rims.

Hard to tell for sure - a profile would be nice.  My guess is 15x8 (275/60/15) in back and 15x7 (234 or 245/60/15) up front.

:yesnod:  That looks an 8" rear wheel. A 10" wide rear would look way bigger.

The fronts look like 15x7? Or is it just a skinnier tire? Do people ever put 8s on the front...

Yes - I have 8's on the front.  But I think the wheel in the photo is a 7 because the tire is so much wider than the rim.  I could be wrong - but that's what it seems like to me.

Just my opinion, but I think chargers have to nice of lines to put dog dishes on them, to me dog dishes belong on a plain wrapper 68-69 roadrunner. Tire width does look cool though.
