    I had talked to a guy a few weeks ago about another set of Challenger SRT wheels and today got the call I have been waiting for. So Tee and I took off and picked them up today. Another set of "New Car Takeoffs". These BLACK insert ones are pretty hard to find for sale.

    NOW... which car do they go on? Hmmmm, probably pull off the ones on LUCKY and try them on there. I need to repaint my calipers anyhow. Really wanted to try them on today, but pretty much need a full day to paint the calipers and THEN install these new SRT wheels.

    A couple of pictures. These are almost NEW, very low mileage; just a few hundred miles, and have the Goodyear F1's, 255x45 on rear and 245x45 on the front and came with the TPMs too; although they will give me an error on my 05 R/T. (NO blemishes at all and back sides were as clean as the front side)
    (I'll post up pictures when I get them installed for opinions.)

    I did take a couple of pictures before install.

    The wife and I have a lotta cars; last count was 22. Six are Dodge Magnums and we keep Four under covers; all but our two everyday drivers, however the one in this picture is our 95 Z/28 camaro convertable with 58,000 miles. We also have a Custom Show Neon and the actual Pace Car from the movie "Days of Thunder" under cover also. I only have a two car garage so I keep my 06 Magnum SRT and my 89 Gran Prix Turbo (the pace car ~ with 7,100 miles on it) both in the garage. We have plenty more cars too ~LOL~

    So looking forward to putting these on and replacing the NEW Challenger Silver wheels that are on there now.... BUT... with temps well over 100 the next few days, appears I'll be waiting awhile. AND, I want to paint the calipers again while I have the wheels off.

    And... while on vacation in upstate New York visiting relative got on Craigs List while family was working and found and BOUGHT another set of wheels. I could not believe the FIND I got. The guy had 4 Brand NEW in the boxes 2013 Charger Chrome 20" Factory SRT wheels and the TPM sensors. Only problem is the sensors will on work on 2011-2013 cars.

    These are awesome and I have them stored at the moment. I also found a guy selling LIKE NEW RSA 20" Goodyears (He had THREE of them), and I bought them too... but NO way to bring 'em home. My cousin will bring them down when he comes for a visit in December.

    And IF you believe THIS; I also got some 18" Drag Radials and already have them mounted to a pair of 18" RT stock wheels. Very cool!

    Yup, I sure scored!!!
