Hey guys,

Anyone have this tire size combo on your Challenger? Any photos on how it looks? Any weird driving issues?

The reason I'm asking is because I went with the Toyo R888R tires for the rear of my 2019 WB HC for better straight line grip and the 305/35 doesn't seem to protect the rim lip like the front stock Pirelli's. So I was thinking about swapping to a 325/30 size on the rear. The difference in diameter would be .700" smaller on the rear.

I just don't want to car looking weird or cause any driving issues if I go this route.

Thanks for the help.

305/35/20 is the stock dimentions for the front of a HCWB. There are alot of threads regarding different tire sizes mounted on the stock widebody rim on this forum. Just punch in the tire size number you are interested in @ the search bar. Give that a try.

That tire should work fine on the back. Check the gap back there and make sure they won’t rub, I think there is lots of room. I run some 325/30’s on custom 11” wide wheels on the front of a WB.

Yeah, i know the 325/30 will work on the back. My concern is how will it look and handle with a 305/35 on the front with it? The 305/35 is 28.4 in diameter and the 325/30 is 27.7. Will there be too much gap on the rear wheel well compared to the front going this route? Will it hurt how it handles and drives? Anyone go this route and have a side profile photo of their challenger?

Sorry, I go the other way. 28.1” dia on the rear and 27.7” front. Still a 0.4” difference.

Yeah, you're probably right. I may just keep the 305/35 on the rear then. Just wish Toyo made a 325/35 in the R888R instead of just the 325/30. This would give a better match to the 305/35 up front I believe.

Exactly what I run. No issues with handling, or any other. Traction is so much better. I run 28/27 psi in the rear and 32/30 in the front. Love it!

Awesome! You have a side shot so I can see how it looks? Are you still on stock springs?
