I know some of you might hate this look but here it is...

The stock 20x9 next to the rear 22x12.


Got a good deal on these Avant Garde 3 piece forged F220 in copper. 22x10 +4 up front and 22x12 +1 in the rear.

I liked the previous set much better.




I do like the chrome lip on these and how the Brembos reflect off of it.

I actually like the color but there is something in me that thinks they make your car look borderline ghetto. Like oversized and bright color I guess, the last ones were perfect!

Last set was better, but the color on this one seems to go with this car. I'm just glad you're having fun with the car!

Normally not my first choice in design or color but I got them at a really good price. Bought them used from a friend of mine and they were still in mint condition so I jumped on them.

Not my first color choice either but its starting to grow on me. The color really pops out in the sun. Just wanted something different. I started seeing Vossens everywhere. Then I started reading A LOT of bad things about Vossen: http://truth-about-vossen-blog.tumblr.com/

I plan to eventually paint the calipers a different color. Probably black.

I would be one of them. Other rims looked way better. Those rims make you look like a F&F car.

I really like the size and style... just not sure if I'm sold on the color. Or maybe I like the color but not the combo of the color and the chrome lip. Maybe a matted lip or even a black lip would be better. Not sure... can't put my finger on it 100%.

The other rims made it look like a cool muscle/race car. These make it look like a low rider. Neither is better or worse then the other... guess it just depends what look you're going for...

I think the new wheels are great compared to the old ones. They flow perfectly with the car.

I really liked the old design...but I think it's maybe the caliper that is throwing everything off with the new one.

I like these ideas.

I really like the style; don't like the color. Surprised you didn't have to stretch your tires more, but I'm glad you didn't. And looking forward to the painted calipers...I hate red calipers .

That was the FIRST thing that jumped into my mind...the caliper color needs to go. Then again, I don't like red calipers...I think Plastidip holds up well up to that temp, why not do them in black for now until you're sure you like a different colored caliper...order brembo decals.

DO NOT change the color of those wheels...they are absolutely amazing

Yeah the bright red caliper is bothering me. I'll probably leave the brushed copper until I start seeing brushed copper wheels everywhere

I am surprised to see so many people that prefer the low pressure cast wheel over the 3 piece forged. Plus Vossens are EVERYWHERE now. Just trying to be different. Got tired of going to shows and meets and seeing my rims on everything

I'm not a vote for the vossens...they're getting played out. THESE are an AWESOME wheel!

Silver/GM calipers, and some high res better lower lighting pictures and people will change their tune.

I was thinking black or silver. Leaning more towards black though.

It'd be cool if you could color match that hemi emblem on the side with the wheels...that might also help it tie in.

You've accomplished different perfectly. You just need to tie it all in...which wont take much.

Maybe that's it. It could be the calipers throwing it off for me. It's like it's soooo close. Just can't quite put my finger on what's jumping out at me. Could be the red calipers...

I think we're all loving the wheel style just the combination of caliper color and wheel color is throwing us off.

I'm not a fan personally. Too tuner-ish for the Charger, but that's just my opinion. I loved the previous wheels, but again, to each their own. It's starting to look a little too much VIP and not enough American muscle car IMO.
