I saw you again this morning. I was in the Charger. Now I'm starting to creep myself out.

I've been in the Charger since there's no snow left on the ground, but my wife looks nearly identical to me, so...

I'm still throwing around the idea of new wheels. Thoughts on these? Expensive as hell but I like the look the best out of all OEM options. They're the Challenger SRT8 Alcoa forged wheels with a PVD black chrome finish.

Not too hard to find, but with that finish it's quite a bit more than just finding a nice set of OEM silver Challenger wheels. The other option is doing just that and then having them powder coated by your boys over there in G'sville. I'm not sure if they do any kind of black chrome look, so I'd probably just go with gloss black or a charcoal color.

Just my opinion, but to spend that much money on a stock wheel...I'd almost prefer you find something aftermarket.
Although if OEM is what you're after, they're nice. If you sell yours and can upgrade for not too much money, then

i'd do aftermarket if the OEM option is super expensive... Also the MOPAR types seem pretty focused on all OEM stuff... Black Chrome looks nice but could use a little more offset.

While some Mopar guys do like a stock or stock like appearance...they are far from a stock crowd.
Just attend an annual SpringFest (this Sat, actually) and you'll see 1000 charger, challengers, 300s, Magnums and TON of aftermarket modding.

There's a party in the back seat and everyone's coming. He he.
Seriously though, I'm in love with these wheels. The PVD black chrome is the coolest thing. It flips from light to dark depending on the light. And I put them on the bathroom scale. They weight 3lbs less with brand new tires than the stock chrome clads with warn tires. Probably a 5lb per wheel/tire savings. Granted they're very similar in design, so some people might not even notice they're not the chrome clads, but that's ok with me, I like the stock look anyway.
