After tons of issues with the finance team and banks in general good old Chrysler capital came in with the numbers ~3% for 75 months which is what I expected. I was shocked that most banks didn't want to approve me since I only have taken 1 loan out in 33 years and paid cash for everything else. Oh well their loss Chryslers gain. Just happy to have her home and already well over 1/3 paid off. The big question now is should I change the rear tires out to 305/35/r20's? I am hoping to get her out more in when the weather in southern OH/KY clears up and I am not traveling for work as much. Thanks again for all the advice. I was able to go in an get the deal I thought was fair and the dealership comes out with another sucker....I mean customer.

Congrats on getting the car home!

i guess that is the bad thing about always getting things cash, there is a lack of credit history. Banks will be weary of that especially for a $70-80k car. Their loss, like you said.

Oooh nice, and congrats. I have that same color combo.
As for 305s, you’re gonna have to step up to wider rims.
I’m running 20x11 PK Auto HR5s in the rears with Nitto 555 R II 305/35/20.
Drag radials are a must.
My top 3 mods now after owning mine 3+years;
DRs
DiabloSport Suspension controller
Barton short shifter (if ya have a manual).

I'd leave it alone. 275s are enough if it's only going to be a street car. My 2020 NB could yank 3.5s 0-60s on 275 all seasons. 305s might get you 3.4

Genius!

Absolute first mod should be drag radials. Makes the power at least somewhat usable.

Strongly recommend good summer 305's. I have the Firestone Indy because last year the Mich PS4S was not available. I never tried DR's, I might get some though. Besides very short life, I hear they are treacherous in the rain. Best to have both! Factory Reproductions has 11" wheels that might match pretty close.

Depends on the drag radials. Nitto work well and last considerably longer than a Mickey Thompson but the Mickey Thompson stick better. I’ve driven in the rain on a Nitto and it wasn’t the worst thing in the world just gotta respect the gas pedal.

I put 20X11‘s on the rear with 305 35‘s with only 251 miles on the clock , never got on it with the stock 275’s , will say I like the bigger wheels and tires, I have the same wheels you have , look at factory reproductions and check out FR77’s they are same exact style as you have , great quality wheels paint and all, very happy with them.

I’ve driven quite a bit in the rain on Nittos, I’ve never had an issue, just respect the tire, as long as they have life in em.
However, once the tires are almost done, they get sketchy in the rain, particularly on standing puddles.
With the PS4S vs the 555 R IIs, I much prefer the DR, from down low they grip relentlessly.
With the PS4S, I could still spin them in 1st to 2nd, often very hard. Mind you I have 315/35/20 sized Michelins.
For my use, since I work a lot, and work is less an a mile from home, DRs fit my lifestyle.
But if I had a long commute daily, I use the PS4S.
