The Challenger looks fantastic. I think it has the perfect combination of pro-touring and classic treatments -- not too much and not too little. It's exceptionally clean and crisp. Great job. I love it.

Challenger

I think it looks good. Here is one on ebay, that is similar.

Can you send me full details on you wheel and tire combo. I like them alot. Troy wright3745@gmail.com

Any rub issues? Looks like a fender lip fold on the front upper section of your car. Did you make any mods to get the wheels to fit?

Troy the wheels are a custom peice made by my measurements they are 18x9 rear with a 5 inch backspace and 295/35/18 tire . If you go an inch lower then stock like i did it will rub on hard bumps.So a 285/35/18 will do you right . the front was a 265/35/18 until it hit the fender i stepped down to a 255/35/18 and no issues I also did not modify anything. the rim is an 18x8 with i beleive a 4 1/2 or 4 inch backspace i will have to double check. The guy who made them is now no longer in business however these are boyd coddington smoothie 2 centers the rest was by design.
