What I like about the 2nd gen chargers is that it seems alot of guys are 'able' to stuff their stuff under the lips of their rear chargers. Im curious is it possible with 3rd gen we can do the same? Would this require a 'major' modification to get it 'stuffed' in the rear wheel well?  I like that hidden look.

Simply put? From the thread it would appear you need to do a little moe than buy a set of 10" wheels and dump 295/50/15's under the car.





I'd say that's too much tire to fit without moving the rear springs and or mini tubbing the rear. While it looks killer, there is a reason that "look
" hasn't been pulled off but very few times without rubbing problems. The ones that are doing it successfully have done it by modding the rear suspension the way it should be. These cars were NEVEr meant to have that wide a wheel/tire under the rear. unless you run air shocks that is.

yeah good points bro, been searching the net and it seems thats the only thing to do is mod the rear trunk area which I dont want to do. Its not like modern cars where we can lower the suspension and what not and put some bigger rims and/or wider setup ni there etc.

Im gonna stick with a fellow member what he has done get some black crags at summit and some 285s or so.  :2thumbs:
